Warmer weather has made the frigid continent more hospitable to two flowering plants, which are now proliferating.

    If couple hours without electricity is potentially lethal for you, then climate change is the least of your worries.

      There are temperature/humidity ranges that make it impossible for any human to be able to cool themselves off through sweating. If we surpass that point and don’t have AC, all humans experiencing that temperature/humidity will die after a period of time.

      Nobody is safe when the atmosphere itself is lethal to human life.

      Why do you think they don’t need the air conditioning to stay alive from the effects from Climate Change?

      Do you think people 100 years ago didn’t live in that exact location, without air conditioning, shit for brains?
