Some of us actually do find the demonstrably ways the world is changing in front of us due to what is likely a Super El Nino 'interesting as fuck'
El Niño doesn't really impact Europe, it's a Pacific Ocean phenomenon. The global heating and destabilizing trends are just the highly predictable impact of generations of rampant air pollution.

It impacts globally. Europe will possibly see a milder wetter shorter autumn.
Maybe don't compare regions that did not have multiple severe heat waves every summer until only a few years ago with Australia.
Obvious troll is obvious.
Who pissed in your morning coffee?
Why are the aussiezone fucks always massive douches?
Because that’s where we sent the wronguns after we couldn’t send them to America any more.
I'm fairly certain you're embarrassing your fellow Aussies who aren't flaring sphincters at this point.
It CAN! I'm also Canadian!
Not autistic and not american. Try again cunt.
Whatever knobgobbler
having spent my life in the American West and now being in Europe I'm very aware of deserts and droughts. having toured and studied the dams, canals, and infrastructure for water in the west I also know how tenuous urban human life is when imposed on environments which over leverage aquifers, rivers, and agriculture to sustain people living in delicate ecosystems.
bitch about Australia turning brown every year is fair, as it has for an epoch or more. France hasn't. The AMOC, jetstream, and geography have given it an incredible angriculture belt which predates the industrial revolution and more.
environments are fascinating, systemically. The earth is the only one we have, and I like to understand it.
I'm sorry the difficult living conditions at your place makes this mild to your eyes. For Europeans it is shocking, we have our people suffering because we do not have the thermal infrastructure to resist this, powerplants stopping due to lack of cooling, river fret stopping causing logistics troubles, agriculture disasters and a peak of people dying. So such a clear, simple and visial depiction of the phenomenon is very interesting to see and connect to all the troubles we are having now.
IDK what pissed in that dude's Cheerios this morning. Maybe it's a bit more mildly interesting than interesting af, but either way I don't think it's worth starting a big argument about it.
I'm glad you posted this.
It's not this morning. I already had this dude tagged as an asshole. He's just like this.
Used so much water this year to keep plants alive, and moving to increasingly growing stuff that is drought resistant.
Probably going to get extreme rain next and everything I have will die from that. Then another drought once it has all died.
