First record heat temperatures and many deaths caused by that. Now the town wiped out by wildfires.

Extreme weather events like this must be expected to become more common.

In Europe we must get used to tornadoes ntzhatg have nothign in common with the dwarf tornadoes of the past, a week ago a big one left a trail of destructiion in the Czech Republic.

Droughts in some parts of Germany and assault-like heavy rains and floodings in tohers, hav e becomne a common patztenr in Germany over the past couple of years. Groud n water levels are fallingin mnost of the country. Germany is no longer a land with excessess of sweet water, like it used to be. In some regions in the North-East, the situations are on the brink to becoming critical.

We must adapt to that, somehow. Dreaming of just turning back the hands on the clock and all will be good again, will lead us nowhere. Time does not flow backwards, nor does history.

I always think of the animals. Desasters like these always happened, and are part of nature and in place cna be cause for rebirth and recreation, but man has speeded them up tremedously, and its not the creatures' fault, but ours. Their suffering is as real as that of humans.

Sad I Know, but this reminds me of what happened in Australia recently.

We have fires in BC right now, its an annual occurrence

Friends of mine are reporting 50*c+ temperatures in Northern Alberta and these poor souls have to wear acid suites outside !

Where I am its a modest dry 32*c and I am under a fire ban because it is so dry here.

We had around 21-23 degrees today. It may not seems like a hot temp. For some of us it is, this due to our high humidity.
