It’s almost like the leeward side of the country gets more rain!
Heat wave really did a number on us
Wow! I live in one of those patches that are still green so hadn’t appreciated just how dry the country was. That’s insane.
Dear Manchester Liverpool Carlisle and Glasgow – enjoy the green parks while you still can.
**EDIT** In before every small town I didn’t mention complains.
It’s grim up north
Edit – sorry typo, I meant green
Oof even the moors got hit hard….
The drought hasn’t made it’s way to us yet thankfully.
In 2018 I think it was the grass was entirely yellow, it had been that long without rain. I wonder if it’ll happen this time around.
I spent the last 2 weeks in the Isle of man and West Yorkshire, drove back to rhe sussex coast yesterday and couldn’t believe it. All the verges are dead and dying back, the trees are wilting and everywhere is just dust. I’ve never seen it like this before.
I knew I should have invested in camels!
That shit looks like Australia.
Dunno if anyone remembers school geography but this pic is such a brilliant example of the exe-tees line
I grew up down in the West Country but live in London now. The difference in rain is very noticeable and still surprises me – in all times not just droughts
Actually think the weather is pretty sweet in this country if ur in the east. Always raining back home
I believe anyone from Manchester or wales knows what I’m on about

On behalf of someone living in a brown area… it’s going to be a nice weekend in a couple of days.
PLEASE. If you go into the countryside, moorland, forests, your local park, PLEASE don’t take a tray barbecue. The whole place is a tinder box, the slightest spark will set off fires that will destroy habitats, wipe out insects and other animals and peoples livelihoods.
Wait a week or two, just this once?
its like a brown tide of torie policy flowing out from the south east to strangle everything.
This is all the marketing material climate groups need right there
I was in London a couple weeks ago in Kensington Gardens, and was saddened to see that a lot of smaller trees were dead, with yellow/brown leaves or completely bare branches, and the grass was completely yellowed. It’s only going to get worse…
Jesus fucking Christ. This is terrifying, not being rhetorical, do we have any breadbaskets that aren’t in drought flooded or blockaded? Anyone able to provide a percentage of the expected harvest we’re likely to have?
Can’t wait for everybody to start hating on *refugees from London* and *southern economic migrants*
Does anyone know if this source is genuine? I reverse images searched and just found 2 bias sources; the rest uk Reddit posts.
Meh. Climate change is just climate *change.* It’s totally fine.
PS. Vote Brexit. Drink in Wetherspoons. Back Boris and share Russian misinformation!

Our brown unpleasant land.
Me, on the Scottish west coast, living the fucking dream not realizing how bad it really is.
Are the burnt bits going to have to be abandoned at some point in the not too distant future?
People who complain about the amount of rain we have need to take a good look at this.
Suffolk may as well be a desert right now!
How in the fuck did we get so fucked
Till we have built Jerusalem,
In England’s ~~green~~ dry and ~~pleasant~~ arid land.
I see the druids are keeping the Celtic areas green.
Sorry? Snow in Scotland???
I got some pretty aggressive replies when I suggested we might be up shit creek sooner than people think with climate change recently on this sub.
Don’t worry though…Carbon neutral by 2050. How do people not see past this utter bullshit we are fed. When you actually do your research and look further into what would be required to even achieve carbon neutral by say 2100, you realise it’s a fairytale dream which is not achievable. And the irony is even if by some insane miracle we did achieve carbon neutral by 2050 – it’s far too late. We should have listened in the 70s/80s and attempted to change our path. But greed won.
We are fucked. Enjoy what you can whilst you still can.
The 7 years summer is coming
It looks a bit crunchy.
Green grass….? I remember the old times
Who’s put the uk in an oven at 180 degrees for 25 mins?
You guys remember when 24 degrees was the hottest it would get? And only for a few days at a time? Been around that temp and higher for the past month 😔

I haven’t lived in England in decades. But I seem to remember it being greener.
Does not look good dudes
Weren’t 2018 that year when it was fully yellow as well? I wonder if we’ll get that again. Fucking grim.
Coming soon! Water bills that cost the same as your energy bills! Oh and also, crippling food prices as our crops wither in the dustbowl fields.
No really. I work with farmers every other day and everyone is telling me that if it doesn’t rain and rain hard for a month, they simply won’t be able to grow enough winter wheat and other cash crops before the season is over. Yes, it has been this hot before, but not for this long without rain. The summer rains just have not materialized this year and it has been incredibly dry since mid spring.
The ground is like concrete. I tried digging a small hole yesterday in my back garden, which is a lot greener than most places right now, and it was like trying to dig up flint in dry concrete.
The thing is, a farmer could happily rip up a field with a plough right now and expose plenty of moist soil and plant his crop, but there’s just no rain to keep it from withering in the heat.

Loving life living in argyll🤣
James Cheshire of UCL also posted this, and there is more detail on the image on his site here: [https://jcheshire.com/featured-maps/the-scarred-landscape-of-the-climate-crisis/](https://jcheshire.com/featured-maps/the-scarred-landscape-of-the-climate-crisis/)
Can confirm it’s still very green in Wales.
If this image doesn’t scare people nothing will.
