If you compare it to the previous record for Vancouver ... which was 34°C in 2009. A jump of 7 degrees is more than just "it's summer".
and? it almost fucking snowed 2 weeks ago in Ontario.
also just checked the weather, it says high of 34, fucking fake propaganda shit
Fair enough. So it’s 7 degrees more, and in the okanagan it’s gonna be 46c on Tuesday.
So if it’s more than ‘just summer’ - what is it? And if it’s going to be warmer for whatever reason for the next few years… and? So? That’s always the question that must be asked: “So what? What’s so bad about a warmer earth?”
Some say “the ice caps may melt.”
Ok, again “so what?”
Life thrived on earth without ice caps and during the Cambrian explosion you couldn’t swing a stick without hitting something lush, green or animal. And it was way, way warmer all over than it is now.
So if this is warmer thing is here to stay, good… I’ve had enough of Winnipeg and Lethbridge winters.
It's not a question if the earth will thrive or not. The question is how we will thrive. Imagine the glaciers are gone in the Himalayas and hundreds of millions of Indians lose their source for freshwater. They won't stay in India.
