The heatdome sits over Europe, and I have to move flats this week. Grateful for friends who just show up and carry heavy things, despite the heat. Worried about the next few days and having to explain the concept of wet bulb temperature over and over again.... I am so so grateful, and also don't want anyone to be unwell because of me.
Also, grieving for the world we could have had, if we had acted more decisively even 15 years ago.
It's quickly become a summer routine, getting up before sunrise to air the flat, cook whatever needs cooking for as many days as possible on the "cooler" days, work, then rest for the day until the sun hides behind the treeline. Wait if it cools down enough for another evening airing, my current task, but it looks like it's not going to until around 4 am. Jealous of homeowners who can just install solar panels and batteries and have gardens to grow food and trees in.
