I was in India during the heatwave in March/April.  Understand that it was not even the height of summer.  Normal life came to a standstill in the middle of the day. Trees, plants and crops wilted. It was the kind of oppressive heat that prevented most of us from leaving the house.  Animals and birds were dying.  Immense water scarcity coupled with huge amounts of mosquitos. Rancid and putrid smells from many open sewage drains.  It was hell. It was horrifying. Temperatures were looming at 110 degree Fahrenheit.  Yesterday, when DC was at 90 degrees, I thought it was a normal weather because it was bearable.  Otherwise, the air at 105 - 110 degrees felt so hot that it hurts your lungs to breathe it in.

I feel all of us need to plant more trees around our homes. [b]Get rid of lawns.[/b] Dig some trenches to do rain harvesting on your property and recharge the ground level of water.  Stop using pesticide, weed killers and fertilizers. Plant clovers to fix nitrogen in the lawn. Compost your kitchen waste.[/quote]

Lawns are dumb.

Huge lawn are super dumb.[/quote]
