So I was scrolling and saw this image in an article about the European heat wave,
And was like, uh, are you missing something there, buddy? Like all that red in northern Africa? Because that's a lot of red.
And I was going to give them the benefit of doubt, since I don't know much about the climate in Northern Africa, aside from Morroco and Egypt, which seem like really hot places, so you know, maybe it's normal there?
But nope, that's not the case:
Africa is struggling with heat waves and many countries on the continent lack the resources rich economies have to deal with rising temperat
Some selections from the article:
"The region has been experiencing some of the most intense heat waves in recent years, but in many cases they’ve been under-reported due to misconceptions about Africans’ ability to withstand them.
“Africa is seen as a sunny and hot continent,” said Amadou Thierno Gaye, a research scientist and professor at Cheikh Anta Diop University in Dakar, the capital of Senegal. “People think we are used to heat, but we are having high temperatures for a longer duration. Nobody is used to this.”
"The Sahel, for instance, has been heating at a faster pace than the global average despite being hot already. Burkina Faso and Mali, both in West Africa’s Sahel, are among countries that are set to become almost uninhabitable by 2080, if the world continues on its current trajectory, a UK university study found. Its people are especially vulnerable due to shrinking resources, such as water, and poor amenities, and a dearth of trees and parks means there are few options for places to cool off."
Assuming this is from a foreigner, there's many charities and NGOs working to improve conditions. Unfortunately, I need to note I'm not incredibly familiar with them because most of them operate very far away from my location, so I'm not the best source to verify individual charities. SEEDS India works on disaster relief and management, including extreme weather conditions. I hear ActionAid India and the Mahila Housing Trust are good too. There's Project Tapan by Raise India, but I think it only allows donations from within India. You can also donate to fund many people's medical bills through GiveIndia. Please bring awareness to the issue in your own countries, and remember that the Global North is responsible for 92% of the world's excess carbon emissions, yet the Global South faces the subsequent devastation each and every time. Remember Western overconsumption directly contributes to our suffering. Remember how privileged you are to even have air conditioning. Don't forget about us.
(I wish there was a way for foreigners to donate to the upkeep of unions since workers are by far the ones affected the most by this heatwave, but I believe almost all of them are only allowed to accept domestic donations.)
If any other South Asians know of reputable NGOs/organizations, especially ones operating in Pakistan and Bangladesh (as the ones linked here and in reblogs are primarily based in India) please link them. If you're South Asian, you can send another ask for advice.
I cannot believe that this is the first I am hearing of this. I am devastated to hear of the thousands of people dying and hurt because of this heat wave.
Here is a mattha recipe and an electrolyte drink that help to rehydrate in hot temperatures, as well as some tips on how to stay cool during intense heat. (note, I found all these through @ninanation's posts too - I just wanted to compile them here for ease of access)
Even if you can't donate to the above linked charities, spread the word and it may reach someone who can.

The best part about playing in a pit orchestra is that, if you know the show well enough, you can draw between songs lol
Here’s a human version of Celestia I doodled in the pit! Didn’t want to cover her in jewels and riches and instead aimed for an elegant and friendly look.
anyways my infinitely better idea for the plot of tears of the kingdom and that i hypothesized within the first like thirty minutes of playing the game was that rauru and ganondorf were going to have been revealed to have worked together to create their own kingdom of gerudo+zonai and went to war with the kingdom of hyrule+sheikah and that was the first great calamity and it was a giant mecha war with two highly technological factions and explains the simultaneous existence of both. also potentially explains why ganon was able to possess the sheikah tech in the first place, if the sheikah used the zonai “goop” to make their own tech. there is a lot in the games to point to this and anyways. it was not this and i was so fucking mad
I dig this. The Imprisoning War being a giant mecha war would also explain why the old king of Hyrule banned all the Sheikah tech after it was over. "No more crazy wars; i mean it!"
It raises a bunch of other questions: Why does Rauru call himself the king of Hyrule? What made the Gerudo stop working with the Zonai?
Yes yes YES that was something I had also specifically considered in this theory. It would be the catalyst for Hyrule to say ENOUGH of this shit especially bc Hyrule would have then defeated and likely annexed the Zonai people. Everyone bury your evil ass technology. But also would explain why Zonai history started to decay and get erased - they were the losers, the “barbaric” tribe that sided with Ganondorf.
Except except exCEPT hear me out, Hyrule did not either realize or like that it was a ZONAI who did this final, betraying blow on Ganondorf to save everyone, the story got twisted and warped through the history by its victors, and so then HYRULE is the one who sealed Ganondorf, obviously, why would it be anyone else? Who are the Zonai, exactly? And the tears are actually the tears of a kingdom erased by time and the corrupt kingdom botw was JUST starting to show hyrule to be.
And then what if when Ganondorf is brought back he goes and teaches the Yiga how to use Zonai tech?? That’s how they’re so good at using it, it would make him seem more involved and PRESENT in Hyrule, and finally give a better reason for Kohga to be so loyal to him…
And then there could be drama between the ancient sages and Rauru’s spirit in those post-temple boss cutscenes, giving us more insight into their personalities and ahhhhh
