Don't worry, ocean currents will change in a bit and northwest europe will freeze
Was checking this out recently but everyone in this thread will be dead of old age by then, it's not expected to be a fast transition.
Neither were the heatwaves supposed to be so severe here right now already. Climate predictions were low side estimates, it's happening faster and consequences of major tipping point influences (ice free arctic) are extremely hard to predict.
Freeze in winter and cook in summertime.
Not true, the change will be much more gradual. But hey, maybe it will slow the heating for a few years. Personally I doubt it.
Heat pump heating/cooling is the way forward. Then it can keep you going when the freeze comes.
