We all know the myth – to boil frogs, slowly increase the temperature so they won’t realize it until it’s too late to jump out of the pot and save themselves. This summer, it appears the frogs are starting to feel the heat. Along with the anger at open borders, this may finally presage the end of the green nonsense and the politicians who are destroying their countries by promoting this hogswallop.
Like clockwork, it gets hot in summer in western Europe. And like clockwork, the morons in the European ministries and media blame climate change for their own failure to face reality and make proper provisions for adapting to it.

The head of the UN wants another trillion dollars to continue the fight against the climate. What does one buy to fight the climate?

The deep state oppressors seem to be obsessed with making the citizens miserable.
They tried to kill millions during covid. Thankfully in America we still have free speech, and access to information that saved many lives.
The only reason we are not in the same mess as Europe is our right to bear arms. They have tried repeatedly to pull that back, with every arranged school shooting. But Americans come from the stock that got the heck out of Europe, and out from under the rule of kings. We fight back.

FTA: 'Some Brits predict it’s only a matter of time before the U.S. military airdrops air conditioners over there.' The USA should totally remove ALL vestiges of our military presence from Britannistan. They would fall to the New Barbarians as they did to the Romans, Danes, and Normans. One simply cannot fix stupid.

Article mentions that Germany dismantled their nuclear reactors but didn’t explain they were replaced by windmills. Windmills!!!!! Last year the wind stopped blowing in Germany for several weeks and they spent millions each day buying electricity from other suppliers. I live amongst windmills and know how unreliable they are.

To the day I die, I will be confused as to how some of these insane leftist causes were adopted by so many people and supported even after they prove to be detrimental to everyone.

If the 'Rats had successfully stolen another election in '24, this is exactly where we would be. Plus a nuclear armed Iran.

Well, it has to be stated. This will happen in the US if we let down our guard. Remember Zero said something like… “We can’t keep driving our SUVs and running our ACs at 72 degrees, and expect the rest of the world to like us”. Remember that? The Dems will take us down this road very quickly if they ever enough political control. To save the planet, of course.

"the pressure drop sucks hot air into the room"
This is a flat out LIE. There are two, SEPARATE, air flows, inside and outside. Inside air, moved by an INSIDE fan, flows over refrigerant cooled coils and release heat. The cooled air is returned to the room. The refrigerant is sent to a compressor and outside coils where a OUTSIDE fan moves the air to pick up the heat to be disbursed outside. This also eliminates bringing odors and contaminants like pollen inside. DUH!
The people who wrote the "explanation" are either morons or think the German people are. Government at its finest, stupid, wrong, and corrupt.

Oh, well. Not my problem. When we travel to Europe, we make sure to get reservations where there is AC in the rooms. We really don't give one damn about what some stupid econazis say. AC works and is desireable in hot weather. We often travel in Europe in September...it being cooler then, and pleasant with fewer of the Europeans on their typical August vacation, so venues are less crowded.

Electricity is so expensive and so scarce - - that all European hotels do not keep the lights on in their upper story corridors.
They have motion detectors - - which flip the lights on for about thirty seconds when someone is moving - - then the corridors go completely dark again. God forbid the motion detectors don't work - - and they often do not - - because then the entire floor becomes pitch dark.

Europeans are idiots. They still haven’t figured out that socialism destroys everything it touches. Don’t ever fall for socialist nonsense - and don’t EVER give up your guns.

i wanted the prado museum; it has guards, and ought to keep the ac going all night.
-3- may wish to wipe out 'ALL vestiges of our military presence from Britannistan'

Very informative article. WE, as Zigrid would say, should be most grateful to valiant President Donald Trump who single-handedly defeated the Global Warming hoax.

Another home run outta the park by Clarice.
The description of heat pump units is spot on -- I spent 10 years selling those units to hotels, and heat pumps were always more economical than standard heat/ac units (although they cost about $100-$150 more to purchase).
But I just thought of a great way to get the UN out of New York. Turn off the AC.
