<p>Here’s a thought on the current heatwave that is absolutely destroying humankind across Europe atm: maybe we should push for a regulation to allow people — ALL people — to stop working in temperatures above 30C. The economy would collapse and finally politicians would take fighting the climate crisis as a priority, rather than leaning into the bullshit narrative that “summer is summer” from their air-conditioned ivory towers.</p><p><a href="/tags/climatechange/" rel="tag">#ClimateChange</a> <a href="/tags/climatecrisis/" rel="tag">#ClimateCrisis</a></p>
