A British news anchor's dismissive response to the 'lethal' heatwave has been drawing comparisons to DontLookUp

A British news anchor’s dismissive response to the brutal heatwave currently blasting Europe has spawned comparisons on social media to the Netflix climate change allegory “Don’t Look Up”.

While Hammond conceded it was not as scorching as it was the previous day, he also noted that temperatures would be rising in the coming days, describing the forecasts as “frightening” while warning that Britain could experience “hundreds if not thousands of excess deaths” in the early part of next week.

“I don’t know if something has happened to meteorologists to make you all a little bit fatalistic and harbingers of doom, but broadcasters — particularly on the BBC — every time I’ve turned on, anyone is talking about the weather and they’re saying there’s going to be tons of fatalities,” Turner said dismissively.

This is painfully obvious to everyone except those choosing to live in denial. Not true it is called summer and we can't drag the earth away from the sun to stop it. Exact same article was written in 1976 1983 1996 they just changed dates and think most of us are stupid and won't notice.
