  12. No time to waste⏳🌎👶♻️
    No time to wait
    Change Now or Never / “Climate Action”
    Forest/ Ocean Ecosystem- “Tipping point”

  13. Tornado alley moved into the midwest. Heat is now your best friend

  14. 9.5?! Should have said 11!

  15. Been a normal summer here in FL.

  16. Where I live in CA its been 60F-70F and cloudy all year long.

  17. Yep, it’s certainly hot over here!

  18. To all Americans who aren't from California or the Southwest, you all are going to have to grow backbone to tank the heat. We've suffered from it for years and we're still learning to tank the century heat.

  19. And the next year, and about 100-200 years after that. Maybe more. Look at your air? Maybe worse. Maybe dead.

  20. HAARP engaged to suffer us into submission

  21. I GUESS LETTING 90 OIL WELLS IN KWAIT 10YRS AGO FOR 2.5YRS WAS NOT THE RIGHT THING FOR LEADERS TO DO THAT WAS 700,000,000 GALLONS A DAY BURNING ABOUT 10YRS AGO NOW YOU SEE HOW IMPORTANT THIS WAS YOU GUYS SHOULD WATCH A LITTLE CLOSER TO WHAT IS REALLY GOING ON IN THE WORLD … NO WATER what..WOW WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO NOW STUPID

  22. Republican. — Seditionist

  23. Pull the oil out of the crust of the earth… results.. extreme heat. DUHHH!!! the one factor our "brilliant" scientists never considered was the simple conclusion that oil has a purpose with in the ground. By way of natural evolution over time, everything and every function on the earth has a purpose. And although oil is the result of carbon life, Oil in the earth serves many functions including insolating the raditing heat within the earth, and prevent cosmic radiation from th sun from further heating deeper within the earth which would eliminate most deep waters and aquifers. We remove the oil, and much like an engine without the insolation of oil. things heat up, not simply by way of all that we do to pollute the earth but also by way of throwing off the earths long developed processes of creating a stable and balanced ecosystem.

  24. I put my water bottles in the freezer. I even recycle them and fill them back up and use them for ice packs.

  25. Extreme this and extreme that. Just stay away from the gyas to avoid the pox

  28. Stop saying Heat Index, it's Wet Bulb temp.
