No man has the right to be an amateur in the matter of physical training. It is a shame for a man to grow old without seeing the beauty and strength of which his body is capable.

Nah probably will be fine humans are better at adapting to horrible climates than we think. Although i don’t like to imagine the cost for water if it gets warmer your water bills will be chit.

People survive in Iraq with 120F average highs over the course of a couple months just fine, Average high in Arizona is like 106. Doubt Arizone gets over 120 in the next 100 years.

Its amazing how humans think they can stop climate change, what will they do when the continents collide into a super continent like it has several times over this planets existance?

Raise taxes? Continent tax?

Should we put a heat tax to save Pheonix?

Vegas has had a very mild Winter this season. We legit had two weeks of snowfall in the city but average temperatures during the day have been in the 50’s-low 60’sF

no 115 is not the same at 115. You think 115F with a dewpoint of 74F is the same as 115F with a dewpoint of 41F at night?? not even close

Phoenix will have relatively low dewpoint during the summer months, yes still hot as fuk but not oppressive like some parts of Texas or Florida.


Crazy thing is that the highest recorded dewpoints have been achieved in dessert areas. I think Saudi Arabia saw 95F once.

to be honest a lot of places by the end of the century will probably be unlivable, or close to it, due to both rising oceans and global temperature increases

the hope I guess is by then we come up with some insane tech to cool the earth or something or somehow completely reverse this trend without wrecking people's livelihood at the same time.
