Happy sweating

Heat currently breakes records over here in Europe. In Germany, the all time record has been broken two days ago with a temp of 40.5°C measured in Geilenkirchen, Northrhine-Westphalia.In my place and in the sun, it gets much hotter already. Paris today reports 40.6°C. Practically all German forests are at high risk of getting seriously damaged, due to the heat last year, low ground water lewvels not replrenished since then, dryness, and the heat wave now all stressing trees and thretaneing to wipe out whole forests. Spruces and beeches are at risk of dissapering form germany, forest rangers say, they are seriously weakned and cannot resit additonal bug plagues we have here. Farmers again will suffer huge losses this year. Riversd are already low, we had first areas in Germany where drinking water was rationed and the waste a punishable offence.

Myself, I live in a darkened cave during the day. Heat is tough to bear. Power grid has become unstable, so has internet links. Micro blackouts of the first and longer breakdowns of the latter has become daily norm over here. This is Germany, Münster, district capital with 370 thousand people, anno domini 2019. The more power gets produced by the sun and wind, the more expensive it gets for the consumer while the prices drop at the central energy market at the same time. German ways and German logic, again 2019 a.d.

I took over a habit of the mediterranean people: siesta from 12 am to 15 pm.

I read that if mankind would perish over night, tempertures in big cities would immediately drop by 3-4 degrees: human bodies in masses produces such ammount of warmth indeed. That launches some queer thoughts in mm mind.
