Heat Index in Brazil Hits 137F (58.5C) - eviltoast
Major updates.

It’s official, red alerts have gone out across the entire country of Brazil as the heat index hits 137F. The high temperature combined with humidity has made it impossible for most people to carry out their normal lives. There’s already reports of power outages. People can’t work. They can’t run errands. They can barely sleep. It’s not even summer there yet.

    They actually said this would happen.

    And yet, we go directly to our graves.

    It seems we want to be dead.

      It’s a prisoner’s dilemma; you’ll be dead even faster if you’re the first to fight back.

      Look to the people who said this. They are calling for revolution, I think we have to start seriously organizing for it this time.

        I was talking about scientists saying that climate change will heat up the planet.

        Scientists told us long ago that we need to cut fossil fuels or the planet would heat up. And now it has.
