Yes and no regarding Australia. I’m writing this from Paddo, where it’s been pleasant through the heatwave. Sydney’s eastern suburbs benefit from an ocean effect which moderates extreme heat and often provides really nice breezes. And down in Melbourne, they’re playing five set matches in the men’s division with the roof open. True the Murray-Darling system is drying up, but that’s more due to the irrigation demands of cotton farmers enjoying underpriced water than anything else. It’s just fine down here, as usual. Hot, sure, but that’s summer in this country. To misuse the aboriginal slogan, always was and always will be.
I know the climate change narrative says we’re all facing a Mad Max apocalypse where the living will envy the dead. But I would have thought that as Torontonians suffer through a normally horrible, miserable Canadian winter, the prospect of a future temperature profile that looks more or less like Philadelphia’s now would have some appeal.
