Yes I’m in the northeast of England and I don't think I recall this heat in my 52 years of life.

I’ve been buying cooking stuff to reduce energy, Ninja, microwave combo grill, a range master and a smaller slow cooker to reduce kitchen energy. I’ve swapped from broadband to mobile broadband that reduces 3 sockets , phone and two decals as I had faulty cables and BT won’t fix them. I did buy a heater, cooling fan and humidifier which I got today uses 10% less energy than a normal fan. And I have a heated throw to keep warm in winter. I’m already a light energy user have been for most of my life I don’t drive. And I limit my bath, Can’t shower. I do my bit. But it’s us that suffers not the rich.

My daily charge on my electric and gas went up 25% and the bills went up 54% and estimated to be up another 65% by October.

And these corps are raking billions in. Feels like a pressure cooker at night.

We are deffo frogs in boiling water.

I’ve stocked up on good, filled my freezer. But I don’t think my generation is going to see this climate change out. It’s gone cyclic now we are stuffed.

It's terrifying. Hard to believe that people will see these events unfolding and still continue to deny.😔
