Greenland losing it's ice cap happens about every 150 years. The last time for Greenland was in 1889. Nothing is new.

It has been very very hot where I am and I hate it regardless if it's a dry heat or humidity. But, I do remember growing up there were some awfully hot summers. And I was out there baling hay, other field work, and milking cows and being right there next to those hot animals. And even later on there were very very hot summers. But I was obviously much younger then and I do think getting older makes the heat even worse. Just cannot tolerate it like I used to.
We didn't have air conditioning back then either. "Maybe" a fan in the house but downstairs. We were upstairs and it was hot no matter where you were. And in the winter you about froze to death upstairs as then we had frost on the walls. Oh, the good ole days.
