There's a reason why the games should held on April or May
The problem with Japan is they don’t turn up their AC, they always maintain 25 degrees at all stores, restaurants and stations which rises to heat temp when it reaches to human height level. Asians know never to visit Japan during summer.
日本の東京は暑いんだよ。知らなかった？Didn't you know that summer in Tokyo is hot? sorry! I apologize on behalf of Japan!
Meanwhile we are doing nothing to stop climate change.
What climate change? Just stop having the olympics in the middle of summer 🙄
So … why aren't they holding the events at night ?
Bahahahahaaha good grief. You fuckin Losers and your made up climate fear.
This is the last Olympics, I hope everyone knows that.
maaaan cant even do laundry with it bein so hot
Humans were never to made resistant to extreme temperatures.
Climate change 🤣🤣🤣
Humans (most) can’t grasp exponential growth. The oil companies know this and use this against all nations, which they rule with a sludge covered fist 👊
The olympics in a pandemic has been a crap show this time around! But money speaks, people are secondary! Smh!
😓 SCARY but still humanity may still on the act of denial… what if the changes nearly or already reahed its irreversible threshold… … 💔
🌡 🔥 forest and trees will continue to burn – worsening wildfires… temperature will keep rising – more heat waves… more number of intensified cyclones… more series of droughts and floods.. sinking of coastlines and low level places… extreme changes of weathers… — unstoppble progression of increasing temperature that seems already "set" to rise faster and further 🔥
🙏 nations must unite and immediately comply before it's to late to be "irreversible"
😂😂😂
We've been recording Temps for 100+ years… the earth been around for MILLIONS OF YEARS, its a drop in the bucket… "climate change"…. pretty soon they gna change it back to global warming…. its the earth we gns ja e to deal with it
I’m here to share with my experience with you all on how dr osaba on YouTube cured my herpes virus within 14days , I use dr osaba herbal natural remedy which cures my herpes disease permanently
The only thing that's extreme is climate alarmism. Otherwise, our climate is great … https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DNeujL1IoCA
Where’s YouTube deleting this misinformation?
Pure propaganda lies right here.
A true athlete can endure diversity the weak will fall
What would the olympics be with out climate change
Just cancel the Olympics forever
They serve no purpose and waste time and resources
Summer in Japan is extremely humid and hot every year.
Every Japanese knows it.
The 2000 olympics in Sydney were held in September – our spring. It seems pretty obvious really.
You think it's hot now, wait until it's in LA. They better hope it's a cooler summer then bc so far Cali has been setting itself of fire.
Wow it’s almost like it’s hot in the northern hemisphere in August
What a load of crap 33°c is a normal summers day in Australia not global warming is just bloody hot.
Rising seawater what a load of crap, coastal river oyster beds tidal marks were set 100 years ago and beds have never been changed in those 100 years they rely on high and low tides to grow.
In future, there's no reason the Olympics can't be in late September early October which has been done before
Marxist climate change
STOP GLORIFYING THE OLMPICS. THE FIRE FIGHTERS IN ALL COUNTRIES ENDURE MORE THAN THESE CLOWNS. FACTS.
Stupid silly people. They need to cancel this planet. Nukes. Just nukes. I had a good run. Hahaha… oh man. Well. Enough for tonight. 😂🙏🏼
Blame your buddy Newsom for his forest fires that last months you Bitchhhh!!!!!!
The summer heat…What about night games….outdoor sports during the summer is good. The heat is on…I rather be cool. Sports is for real. Take care of us all. They are the best athletes in the world. The Olympic games is traditional…these are the best in the world. Our future is these games. Summer games at night…hot during the day; cool at night.
God bless these athletes

How do you know it driven from climate change?
Trees, Trees, We Need More Tree's to Become Carbon Heat Sinks, Provide Shade & Create more Favorable Ecology for Cooler Temps!
They should run and compete AFTER 18 hours. NOT before!! Been a long distance runner – I know how suffering extreme heat is. It impedes you from working hard.
It’s HAARP
COVID-19 has completely overshadowed the biggest threat to the world climate change
