I can’t understand climate change denial. I was born in the 80’s and when I was a kid the summer was considered warm if there was a week or two of day time highs of at least 25°C. Now a summer with two months of at least 25°C is normal. Spring has sort of almost disappeared, one day you’re skiing and two weeks later it’s summer and cycling season already.
I’m not really complaining, the weather here is much better compared to what it was when I was young, but it’s definitely concerning and to claim it hasn’t changed in the last 20 years is just plain denial or insanity.
