so here i am sitting at home because today is a free day from school and work. i am sitting here and melting becsause even if it is only 1 may there are 35 degrees outside. it is a nice summer day of course but my problem is that usually at this time would be a much lower temperature. so for the ones that still think that global warming is just a SF story:it is real,it is happening,the sun is burning hotter than it used to because of the damage we have done to the athmosphere.

When it gets really hot here.I go swimming.It is a great escape from the heat.And it also keeps us fit. I really love swimming.It feels so good when you are swimming. And if you can,Then have a cool drink.That is what i do. And it is true what you said.It is getting hotter these days.Way too hot than it used to be a while back.

Aren't there any pools around that you could go to? If not turn up your air conditioning and have some cool drinks and chill. ;-)

It is very hot in here also. It is around 40 degrees outside. It is summer already and we have to face to it. Better you use air con in your room if it is too hot. I really hate hot summer, cant go to anywhere and always be hot...

In Greece it gets hotter and hotter the last week, we are one month before summertime and it is already on 28-29 C degrees. So If it is hot already I suppose it would be around 40 in a month :P

The climate has entirely changed. We people has little rain during these days but we could get anything which we expect. We could only get the heat from the sun. I think this is due to the over exploitation of nature by human beings. We people feel sever hotness and most of them know what is the reason for it but still the people use to exploit the environment to large extend. I don't know what people are expecting for ?

Yes, I do think that global warming is real and it really is damaging the atmosphere of the Earth. It really is not really hot here yet. It really is a cool spring here in Canada. But the summers here can be really hot. I try not to make too much of an impact on the Earth by recycling. I hope the weather gets cooler for you and more comfortable.

way to go for recycling i don't think the weather will cool to soon in here. i am wishing so much for a rain right now.

yeah of course its happening on main cause of greenhouse effect in all parts of the world. We should think of it soon otherwise the ozone layer will be demolished in a small amount of time. I am hereby requesting everyone to make sure that you are not taking part in anything which affects our country and the world.so everyone be careful and and don't ever decrease the life of earth.

Since I come from a hot country myself, I can understand completely how you feel. Above 40 dergrees is something very usual in summertime, and it literally makes everyone incapable of doing anything. In times like these I just prefer to stay home and avoid sunlight, which nowadays is really bad for our health anyway, turn on the air-conditioning, and do nothing...ok maybe play some video games.:P Btw, remember to drink a lot of water.When I was in the army they used to tell us that if we begin to feel thirsty, it's too late, we should have drunk water beforehand so that we would never feel thirsty. Apparently when you feel thirsty your body has already been dehydrated, and in hot days you should really try to avoid this.

hello the problem is that i can't avoid getting out of the house. it is true that the sun ourdays is more powerful and the radiations are more dangerous. the air conditioner is another issue because it is not so healthy either and it gives me head aches usually.

Funny I’m freezing. Different place I guess. I think it should be called global change not warming though. They say, they say a lot of things.. if the gulf stream from gulf of Mexico shifts and Greenland melts (it is melting I think) then you guys in Europe are in for a real bad cold snap next decade, something like an ice age. The fridge might be in your living room. Weird I know!

i suggest you should drink plenty of water each day. you can also take baths 3 times a day to sustain a normal body temperature. the doctors also suggested, to avoid heat strokes, if u are out of your house, you can pat cold water bottles unto your neck area. and i think this is the best suggestion for us who live in a tropical country.

thank you for the advices.that is the issue:my country is not a tropical climate. i am from Romania and we have a temperate climate.it is not supposed to be so hot yet.
