You call this heat LOL.

Testing of weapon and high heat and smoke resulting from rockets used in missiles and space missions are destroying environment

When the cool becomes hot, hot becomes hotter and the hotter becomes unbearable.. That will be the challenge of global warming, my friend... This needs to be somehow reversed, or there won't be many survivable places in our side of the world...

The problem is that most South East Asians have air conditioners in their home, unlike Europeans that have heaters and chimneys.

And people don't have a culture to face hot temperatures, like the South East Asian bandung cincau ( 涼粉, 仙草, 刨冰, 草果), and food is highly energetic because meant to combat cold!

I guess Siberia will have climate of France or Germany of middle of 20th century and France will have climate of Lybia.

This is a well planned conspiracy. The world puppet governments will do nothing against the ongoing destruction of the climate started right after 1950s.

As some 4.7 billion metric tons of hydrocarbons are produced and released into the atmosphere as green house effect gases annually, a totally unnatural man-made phenomenon, in the same time what was the natural absorbers of animal-released CO2, the forests and rain forests have basically been destroyed only to be replaced by thinly dispersed plantations such as palm trees, if replaced at all.

My concern is rather the atmospheric oxygen rate that should have logically decreased over the decades, but no information can be found of course...

Beats having that unhealthy fake drink coca-cola

Another difference with South East Asia is that construction norms and standards in Europe, don't allow much "flexibility", be it typhoon, quake, flooding or heatwave: thus buildings are prone to developing cracks due to heat-induced subsidence, to the point of collapsing.

Homes built on clay are particularly susceptible to subsidence during long, dry summers because trees and shrubs suck all the available moisture from the soil, causing buildings to shift on their foundations.

This week in France alone, 4'000 houses have been affected forcing some owners to flee to avoid being crushed alive!

▲ 2. Homes across the UK have certainly been suffering as a result of the heatwave and in July alone reports of subsidence were up by 20% compared to the same time last year.

My God. They will have deserts in Southern Europe this or next century.

If the rain remains ok no threat of desert
There are places in Pakistan near rivers that have temperatures of upto 50C and all ypu see there for miles are lush fields of rice or cotton or orchads of mangoes
This will change the environment however drastic change will only occur if rainfall falls

Lol this makes malaysia feels like heaven, it is consistent 30C ish in daytime throughout the year.

In Pakistan the monsoons have started so its 30,ish here too but back in june we did experience mid 40,s with bonedry conditions which is average max for us in that
The dry heat is easy to counter its the humid heat that acts like a bitch

I guess Siberia will have climate of France or Germany of middle of 20th century and France will have climate of Lybia.

Less of Libya more like South Asia as I havent seen any indication that rainfall shall decrease

We can activate a large source of dust (dormant volcano or an upper atmosphere nuke) to reduce the greenhouse effect. Bad idea though....
