    Pretty sure since the beginning of written history, wandering into the desert has never been portrayed as a safe activity, especially in the middle of a heat wave.

    Climate change is real, but that’s like saying someone froze to death in the Artic due to climate change.

      The broader context is that hundreds are now dying annually from heat in Nevada. Many people will die from heat waves, not to mention severe weather, flooding, famine, and human conflict caused by resource shortages.

        Man, Lemmy is savage with its downvotes.
