      I had darkly wondered if, were it seen that the environmental battle was lost, would the narrative simply pivot to managing the worst conditions. Guess these are the first seeds; climate change is coming, how do we accommodate it

      Anyone who’s done a hot summer in a kitchen will appreciate this. One spot I’ve worked in clocked 45° and it was worse beside the salamander. Grand for a few minutes but hell after a few hours of service.

      _Sorry, I need to take today off, I feel a bit of ocean anoxia coming on._

      When I think about it, I got 1 day off for Storm Ophelia and then 3 more for the the Beast from the East (well got sent home during one of the days). I was also sent home during storms and one afternoon during the 2022 heatwave (office was just too hot). So I’ve seen many of these events even in the 10 years or so I’ve been in the workforce…

      And that’s excluding whether one views any time I got off work during Covid-19 as related to changes in the climate…

      This is entirely reasonable, if you can’t get to work or it’s unsafe for you to travel or work outdoors beyond your control due to climate issues, why should you be docked wages.

      I’ve been either sent home from the office or told to work from home when the weather has been red or verging on red warnings.

      I got excited seeing climate leave. Apparently, it’s not for when the suns out.

      No routine work during orange warnings? Country is permanently on an orange warning. Can’t work outside above 24C? Something is needed but they are making a joke of the demand with these requests.

      That would be “(extreme) weather leave”, not “climate leave”. Climate and weather are two different things, and that’s the case during all types of weather conditions, not just when it’s cold.
