EU heat wave tells a big problems

[404]

The current European heatwave is the worst ever recorded on the continent, prompting red alerts across multiple nations, shattering all-time temperature records. Less than 20% of European homes have air conditioning, leaving millions trapped in brick and stone buildings designed historically to trap heat rather than vent it, while 100% of the Chinese homes possess over 100% of air conditioning

Global warming. 9 of the 10 hottest years on record have occurred in the past decade.

But the conspiracy theorists will say it's hoax, of course.

My mother who is living there complaining too. Lol

Since the European Union consists of countries with distinct seasons, the local market for air conditioning and heating systems is relatively small, making both the units and their installation quite expensive. Residents rarely see a need for them during typical weather, except during periods of exceptionally hot or cold temperatures.
The entire market for these items depends on imports from China, as they are more affordable than locally manufactured alternatives.

The heat and humidity in S'pore has also been unbearable these past 3-4 days. I had no alternative except to keep the A/C on when I WFH.
