After three weeks of unprecedented heat, I began to doubt that I wanted to settle in a hot summer country in a hot southern country. Maybe it's better in Canada?
Even though it doesn't say that I spent a lot of time this summer in the Netherlands, and this is good, because for extreme weather conditions like this country it doesn't match at all! Too me, Venice from the North! Because this channel is stuffy here, like in the tropics during the rainy season! At home - also gas barrels, air conditioning in the apartment is not provided, but why? We seem to live in the north. We cannot install it ourselves, so as not to damage the appearance of the building, which in principle I agree to.
By the way, I see curiosity, there are air-conditioned homes in the housing market in Rotterdam, apparently, only two! No, I understand - old funds, but new housing and elite designs without air conditioning?
At first we waited patiently until the heat subsided, and old Dysson succeeded. And then the house is so hot that you can die, and we go to the store for air conditioning. This is a dubious design with a flexible paper tube, which must be removed outside the window. Ideally, of course - in the hole done in the window, but who will give it to do?
In the shop to meet us from the home appliance department came six with fans under their arms - a bad sign. And of course, we don't have the devices we need. And that's impossible, because summer, they say, will end soon. We see, is it possible to order it online - for all countries zero offers!
People feel like garbage, and even at a construction site not far from us, the second day is quiet - they fire workers to avoid heat attacks. Disgusting situation, but apparently, it has its advantages! People are dying, and that's great, a year for the country's economy in a demographic plan will work.
February was cold and wet, the flu raged, the epidemic continued in March. People died in these two months as much as two thousand more than last year! Basically, this is parents and patients, that is, weights on our neck are healthy.
But not only does the flu cut off people, the picture of recent years has shown that extreme heat for health can be just as damaging as cold. For example, in 2003, 1,000 people died more than usual, in 2010 - five hundred, in 2015 - three hundred. That year we prepared, even for imagination.
The Dutch were practical people and immediately concluded that the heat was for good! For this phenomenal thought came the Amsterdam University demographic teacher Jan Latten (Jan Latten), he immediately made a statement through the press. He said that at high temperatures and flu epidemics, parents die more often. This is known before his statement, but demographics go further and ensure that this fact will not increase retirement age in the future.
Climate change affects the life expectancy of Dutch people, reduces it, and that does not mean that people will die quickly, more often. What's wrong, but overall - well, the fewer people will live to retirement, the better it will be left.
At present, the picture with retirement age is as follows: in 2021 the retirement age will be 67 years, in 2022 - at 67 years and three months, and then, thanks to the weather and flu, the prospect is unclear. In general, advanced age approaches, it is necessary to check from here.
I learned this information from the local newspaper AD on July 28. My husband told me about a short morning coffee, breaking the constant rules for not reading coffee, not seeing the phone, but just talking. I was very surprised to hear what I forgot about all the rules. Well done by the Dutch, in all positive moments looking.
By the way, about photos with bicyclists, which, apparently, do not apply to topics. This shows the pope, who pulls a little princess on the road. I do not want to take risks and I am not sure this is not a violation of road rules. He insures his daughter, hugs him with a tail, it hurts him, maybe it will, if he, God forbids, crashes. By the way, in America for such will revoke the rights of parents. Personally to me, all of these moments - from one barrel: attitudes toward girls, attitudes toward parents ... Pofigism and infantilism, in general.
If it turns out a newspaper article encourages me to write this post, I will tell you about two more events last month, which I learned from the same source, namely, from my husband. I myself haven't read the newspaper for a long time and from principle, but my husband believes that he must know that in our country Stay, it happens. Sometimes he read, snorted happily and said that I would be interested. I am never wrong again!
Here, for example, again about the shame of the Dutch. In mid-July, a note showed that 7.7 tons of cobalt for around 112 million euros was lost in the port of Rotterdam. Theft occurred allegedly two weeks ago in the July 2-9 period. Rabbit! And just answered? How many cobalt trucks do they pay attention to? Seven odd things are, that's all, a lot. At a meeting of port workers, they decided to strengthen the protection of the area.
By the way, to persuade someone from the badge holder to the port to give these bad guys pass at least one day almost eight thousand euros.
And something else from the life of the port of Rotterdam: the cocaine mafia was replaced by its owner. Previously, all affairs were run by Moroccans, and now - Albanians. Because the first one is rude and too often attracts police attention.
This is not the end of the story with cobalt! A few days later, another note called "Foutje", "wrong", means. The cobalt was not stolen, but it sank. And the next day they reported that empty containers fell into the sea, where there was no cobalt, all containers were captured, and whether there was any cobalt at all - unknown.
For the sweet - from the life of the Dutch police. The convoy team was stolen from the warehouse, or where it was stored. How many parts of the lost weapon are unknown, and exactly when the theft occurred. Is that for potential criminals who are reported?
Therefore moral: how terrible life is in the Netherlands! Hopefully the weather is good!
