A severe heatwave is ongoing in Europe. Temperature records broken in France, Switzerland, Germany and Spain.
On 11 July 2023, the Land Surface Temperature (LST) in some areas of Extremadura (Spain) exceeded 60°C, as highlighted in this data visualisation derived from measurements from the Copernicus Sentinel-3 Sea and Land Surface Temperature Radiometer (SLSTR) instrument. The ongoing heatwave in Spain this week is resulting in a total of 13 autonomous communities, being at extreme risk (red alert), significant risk (orange alert), and risk (yellow alert) due to maximum temperatures that, in some cases, will exceed 40°C and reach a maximum of 43°C.
For reference, “in areas where vegetation is dense, the land surface temperature never rises above 35°C. The hottest land surface temperatures on Earth are in plant-free desert landscapes.”
Stupidest fucking comment I’ve ever read in my life. Water doesn’t dry up? Have you never seen a dry river bed? Or how about salt flats?
This is why we are doomed to die to climate change. People like you who are completely unwilling to even begin to understand the thing they refuse to accept.
Lol, you obviously don’t read much then.
Obviously existing agriculture uses too much water, which is why there are alternatives such as CEA…
I work in a sector that is mitigating climate change, so I’d be interested to know what you’re doing about it, other than stealing oxygen.
I’m an environmental engineer, but good guess.
But keep patronizing people you’ve never even spoke to before.
You’re either stupid, or you’re being disingenuous, and if you actually do work in that field, I’m leaning towards the latter.
“Hurr durr, oceans exist therefore it’s not possible for water to dry up anywhere.” That’s on the same level as, “how could climate change be real when it’s snowing somewhere on the planet?”
You started the insults cunt, I was being polite, but I’m happy to trade them. I’d warn you though that I am something of an expert in that field.
And if you were actually an environmental engineer you would know that weather is likely to become warmer and wetter, wetter is the opposite of drying in case you didn’t do that module in your fake degree from your imaginary university.
When liquids get hotter, they evaporate, but this is probably getting a little too technical for you.
So, why don’t you go fuck yourself and learn some basic facts before you reply making an even bigger tit of yourself
