The artificial grass in my garden is greener than green.
No grass seeds, no watering, no mowing.

I'm sure the artificial ants, worms, beetles, moths, flies and spiders are well pleased!

That's definitely trending...

Looks to me like the mean summer temperature is rising most where house prices are also rising the most.

Perhaps house prices drive up temperatures?

Anything that flies will need to land eventually and therefore will need to float...unless of course it is cloudbase

in which case I'll happily live there with Destiny, Harmony, Symphony, Melody and Rhapsody.

Really Captain?

The sooner world population is reduced the better.

And presumably those who agree with you will be at the front of the queue? Or are you expecting everyone else to make the sacrifice?

I always thought that temperatures rise around the world then we'll just become a hot country like the ones we go to on holiday to get some decent sun.

Global warming means more energy in the system and a more chaotic system. This means that while average temperatures might slowly increase, there should be more extremes in the weather.

Hopefully by the time anything like this is needed it will fly as well

Does that float? It needs to float.

Time to start prepping?

But as those areas get hotter - surely places with lots of Ice - like Greenland - the ice will melt thus leaving more arable and livable land?

Or not?

And then the low lying arable lan in places like East Anglia, Lincolnshire, Kent will be lost to the sea.

We're doomed I tell ya, all doomed.

Repent ye sins for the world doth end tomorrow(ish).

I'm sure it will all work itself out

Will be catastrophic for those hot countries if they become uninhabitable during the summer - and wildlife, vegetation. Doesn't really bear thinking about but we might be doing more than just think about it if this keeps up!

Doesn't really matter in the grand scheme of things. We're just another transient species - just a little more destructive than most.

I'm all for proper seasons rather than different shades of grey. I'll gladly take colder winters for more summers like this one, with our utility companies and other infrastructure services having to adapt accordingly.
