So, the temperature is getting hotter. One of the reasons is simple... I't Summer in the northern hemisphere.

The upswing of recent increase in global temperature no matter what is causing it, is going to challenge every single living creature on the planet.
So, I am decidedly certain that I will need to adapt to survive, no matter what the causes originated from. Corporate greed or overpopulation or solar minimum creating unstable geothermal activity.
Fact is, yea, it's hot. Dallas Texas, 2018. It was always hot this time of the year. What 2 cents worth of extra information can you give about your country, your area of the globe, that sends up red flags to you, based on your personal experience with the weather? Let me know. I need more feedback. Thanks in advance.
One simple question to ask is: Why is the northern hemisphere warmer than the southern hemisphere?

Right now, we are experiencing rains and a little bit of sunshine. Regarding your question, I have no answer. I just recently learn about the longest days though.

Some will be luckier than others. Such is the fate of being alive in the 21st century with climate change.

@mlgen1037 , Yes, it starts with organized groups and non-profits. The governments of countries that are inline with the United Nations and aware of the path we are on to self destruction and realize it is time to make a change, the first thing is to lower emissions from every corner of the globe. It is better to design cities for pedestrian and public transportation infrastructure, not automobile based transportation. The biggest problem is driving petroleum based vehicles. The first thing we need to do is STOP MAKING gas guzzling vehicles and start making electric cars and rhodes vehicles, which do not have a motor. Pedal power is the way to go. internet makes it possible to avoid driving and cuts back on paper. Plastic needs to be done away with. Solar and Geothermal and Wind power are the best alternatives, Stop cutting down the forests and burning them down to make way for clearing out the trees and replacing them with urban use. The population can be made to restrict births to one child per couple or two, and adoption should be the first choice. Build apartments that use the outer areas for growing gardens and plants to put oxygen back into the atmosphere. Cut back on the use of materials that can never be recycled that take up land space, like plastic and disposable diapers. Recycling anything that can be recycled or reused for road construction. Being a leader on the international level as a country so others will follow by your best example.

@lookatdesktop For sure. But will it ever be possible that we go remove climate change and get back to what we used to be?

I live in South West England and it has different weather depending on area. All year round it is more mild here than it is in South East England. The weather is hot and sunny with lots of humidity. The sea breeze makes my local area feel cooler than it is very often. Some of Australia gets hot and it is Southern Hemisphere. High up it can be cool and it was for me when I was at the Equator in Sumatra.
