| So many buildings have not been designed for this hotter weather... We're back to closing the curtains in the morning to keep the sun out so it doesn't heat the house up too early in the day. We've had days that are the hottest ever recorded but just reaching for more electrical gadgets often increases the amount of heat and certainly increases the amount of energy used. People in other countries which are usually hotter than the UK have simpler ways of staying cool. We just grit our teeth and try to carry on business as usual - instead of learning to adapt. The BBC radio programme Rare Earth yesterday was very good. https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m001vbt0 |
