Hot Day

It was terribly hot and humid for the last few days. Walking on the street under the hot sun is basically unbearable. People said it is the negative impact of global warming, and perhaps the instant effect of carbon dixoside level reaching the 400ppm, first time in human history. Some said it signals the arrival of summer, and it is time for holiday now. What ever you want to call it, personal suffering is on the card now. As individual cannot avoid from the humidity and prefer to keep own self under the shaddy area or in the air-conditioned enclaved area. Shopping centre will see bigger crowd now, but might not be neceesary turned into higher sale volume as many might want to be there enjoying the coldness. People are lazy to go outdoor spending leisure time. All of these, in fact have impact on our living environment. For example, more energy is consumed for air-conditioned. Similarly, usage of utilities and facilities outdoor are not optimised due to lacking of users. Will this change our lifestyle? The answer is definitely YES. Do we have answer to remedy this? YES but require collective actions from all, locally and globally. Shall we do it? YES, and immediately or else today of next year will witness more serious effect on human activities.
