The Meadows of Medieval Summer

OT: It's sad that future generations will probably be robbed from the joy of being able to stroll around fields and nature during the summer, at least in Europe.

The climate is so hot already that you basically need to live the whole summer like a bat lives every day - shut yourself inside during the day, go out at night. I already have a list of once cherished summer hobbies that are now borderline between being unwise and foolish nowadays, and it was all in the span of 20 years

		Europe used to be hot during the medieval warm period. The biggest climate change risk to Europe is actually that it will get colder if Atlantic currents change. Some 1980s models predicted the UK would have been badly affected by now with a climate similar to Canada or Siberia. > The climate is so hot already that you basically need to live the whole summer like a bat lives every day I have not stopped going out during the day although I avoid it if possible during a heatwave - but those only last a few days at most and maybe once of twice an year, not "the whole summer". I have strolled around in much hotter tropical climates.
