I was working outside this week (Southern US) and it was an absolutely miserable week. After a half an hour I was drenched in sweat, and it was rolling off my hard hat, getting in my eyes, and I was forced to pace myself and work much slower than I would otherwise be able to do because the heat was that intense.
I was able to drink some of my coconut water reserve because it has the things plants crave.
It’s definitely the worst summer heat I’ve felt since ever.
For the longest time, measures against climate change were decried for potentially impacting “the economy”. Well now we’re going to see the impact to “the economy” with climate change getting worse. I assume it’ll be a bigger impact than if we had invested in more sustainability earlier. Slower work pace outside just being a small taste of the impact.

Wait until next summer!
Why was your hard hat sweating? I wear a hard hat at work and I don’t think I’ve ever had sweat rolling off it. That doesn’t seem physically possible.
i imagine it was the humidity from the ambient air and not from his head.
This one has a cloth like padding at the forehead, it collects the sweat but gets saturated and beads up on the front and rolls off.
It’s nice to have if it isn’t a lot of sweat, but when your entire face is drenched, it does that.
Ohhh ok, I have a similar hard hat. I wear a chill-its cap under mine, it’s more comfortable and has a sweat band built in
