Yes, somewhat 08:26

A lot of translations I have done over the last 5/10 years have been about climate change...

Yes somewhat 09:37

I don't feel comfortable working at temperatures beyond 28°C in my study. My shutter and window positioning routine in the summer follows the sun to try and prevent the house from heating up, but it goes only so far.
Because the outside temperature exceeds 40°C more often in the summer, I have to turn the A/C on for longer periods.
I didn't raise my rates to cover these additional energy expenses, and full insulation overhaul would be too expensive.
