What a load bollocks.
Gen X Y and Z are behaving as if the sky is falling when the temp tops 30. It isn't.
It is perfectly normal in the eastern states to have a heatwave over Xmas - NY with temps topping 40 in Sydney - and quite frankly that has NOT happened so far this year. And all I see is a lot of softies whining about how long the aircon is needed. As one who grew up without aircon this is ridiculous.
Yes I agree there is climate change - particularly in the monthly averages and night time temps, but it might not be all bad. For example the rain shadow that existed 20 years ago over Sydney to south coast seems to have gone, and while on average hotter, it has been consistently wetter.
Since when did Alice Springs get 200mm in midsummer, let alone in 1 day ?
