Europe’s Heatwave Kills 25,000

I was just reading your article “Less Shopping Centres, More Parks”, someone has told me, noting “the line about water shortages at the end.”

I said: “Water shortages are also becoming a matter of urgency across Europe. This is climate change in action.”

In IRC he shared “the good, the bad, and the ugly….”

It said (headline) “Europe’s Record Heatwave Kills 25,000, Dries Rivers, Shuts Nuclear Plant, Exposes Submerged Warships…”

“How Is the beaver population in the UK?” he asked. “What is happening in the USA might be of help” (The beavers returning to the desert).

In IRC I joked: “let’s build more chatbot centres, we need more chatbots, give them our water and power to cool down… the server, not the elderly… because… chatbots”

We are seeding our own collective destruction.
