    We don’t care about regular US temperature. Climate change is all about constant change, that brings damage to people, cities and agirculyures that developed 5°C colder. Every year is the hottest summer ever, all of this is not normal and is pretty worrying.

        If your climate never got up to 29, it does. It’s the same as people and infrastructure freaking out in Texas because they had a couple of cold years. They got some weeks under -10°C and electricity got cut-off, water pipe burst and people died. Are people dying in Norway when you get to -10°C? Absolutely not.

          That sounds like that infrastructure was cost-cut shit outsourced to private profiteers.

          The reason Texas’s electricity collapsed is due to that exact reason. Their power grid is separate from the rest of the country.
