Oh you doomer zoomers...
I mean even if you aren't old now you'll be old eventually. And then the heat's gon' get you
That's not how climate change works lol. Some areas become cooler, some become warmer. On average it gets hotter by 2.5 degrees or less now.
That means unless you live somewhere that can't stave it off like near a lowlying coastline or in other heavily affected areas already well predicted, then you will literally be fine.
Better people than the average Lemming listen when they hear people are going to die or have their lives severely affected.
As someone who lives somewhere that's supposed to be cold for 5+ months of the year, with snow on the ground and everything.... Our grass was green last winter, not white because it's covered in snow.
We had cold snaps but they lasted days, and the majority of the "winter" was spent above freezing. I haven't seen anything like it in the last 40 years (my entire life), and I expect much the same next year.
Good thing I invested in that snow blower.... It makes for some lovely decoration in my garage and does a really good job at collecting dust.
Yes on average over a multiple decade period. This says nothing about how weather is going to change and it's likely to change a lot. Extreme weathers are going to be way more likely anywhere you are.
