As a kid I visited Spain on holidays. Usually at the warm and dry coastal areas. It was rocky, sandy and there was not that much vegetation. When I returned home to The Netherlands I was always happy to see our green grass and dense, green woods after spending two weeks in the hot sun. Not that I think NL is superior, it was just nice to see the change between countries as a kid.
Nowadays, The Netherlands and Belgium have become beige colored countries. The grass is always dry, waterways are empty or low and there seems to be an increase in wildfires. And we're having a drought year after year. And it's not even that bad compared to lots of other countries.
How anyone can still deny climate change when the effects are this visible is beyond me.
