      Is it? Why? Houses in Europe are still built to withstand heavy winters

        Yeah but the food supply may not.

          Where does this idea come from? European agriculture is much more resilient to cold than it is to heat, as it has historically developed to withstand harsh winters.

        If they can withstand heavy winters they can also withstand heavy summers. Insulation is awesome that way. I’ve kept my well-insulated house cool by shutting the triple glazed windows and the blinds during the day and opening everything at night. And that wasn’t just one day, it was hot (35-37C) for weeks. Although we were lucky that it wasn’t hot at night, like it was in Australia.
