how do you survive 30c

sunlight not passing throught the black clothes reduce perceived temperature and sun hitting the skin more than wearing lighter shade clothes

Yes, you're right if you want a skin protection. Filtered. If you wear a dark hat, the protection is optimal against sun radiation. But in case of emergency when feeling too hot (high heat) the problem is not there ... We want to reflect the light.

White clothes are not sufficiently reflective to stop the sun from hitting the skin more than black clothes, animals in the desert don't white max for the most parts, silver ants wich color is claimed to be optimal and/or adaptation for intense sun, are brown and shiny reflective silver. I mentionned above, if you are in the shade and still feel to much heat, better to not wear any clothes

@user1 @luch white clothes vs black clothes doesnt matter much in 30 degrees im sweating so much my nipples can identify as raisins. Yet im still becoming more lazy less creative /focused on my work. By work i dont mean stressful deadline work.

Excessive Heat makes people cognitivly special :

Not eating ton of refined sugar, not being depleted, being with people you want to be with, being in a low emf environnement, whole milk dairy depending on the source. Some foods are pro lying down and doing nothing

If you in the sun it does, if you are not in the sun no clothes better

Eating ton of refined sugar is not pro relaxation, it can make you stoned or make you move a lot depending on other factors, yet not relaxed. Refined sugar is one of the sloppest things you can consume for most people

I answered to your question how can people relax doing nothing

@lobotomize You are healing your body, thinking, reflecting. The first part was BS XD.

But you are thinking, reflecting, and helping your health XD. Sunbathing is not doing nothing lol. I do it for 30 minutes to an hour a day. Even when it's just sunny. Not a heatwave. Europoors have to.

30 C is fine when the air is dry. In the Philippines, that came this March. February was the end of our cold dry season, which began around September. It was a nice long stretch so I was happy for that.

But from April to May, we are getting a terrible stretch of heat and humidity, temperatures reaching 35C and humidity reachies 90%. It's also El Niño at work.

At home I'm usually barechested and wearing shorts. More iced water and some Coke and before dinner, a beer with nuts. But at night I sleep with the AC, though I had it in full blast for the 1st 2 hours and then when off I have a Cyclone fan on full blast to spread the leftover cold. My AC isnt the inverter type, so I use it this way. In drier months, I have a humidifier to make the humidity higher as the AC dries the air. A wetter cold feels colder.

I envy the California meditteranean climate, mostly year round cool and dry.

I get more chores done without breaking a sweat.

We are lazier when it's hot and wet. But hey, the tropical fruits and the nice beaches are there to enjoy, if I get around to making the trip to the beach.

@yerrag the moisture here in germany is at about 30% nothing above and beyond

@lobotomize, when our central AC needed replacing two summers ago, I kept cool with popsicles, nice cream and a cooling neck wrap.

Wouldnt you need a humidifier with air that dry? And some moisturizers and lip balm? I would since my skin would get itchy and my lips would crack given what the much higher humisiryblevels I'm used to in the tropics.

@yerrag i actually wake up with extra oiled up lips for some reason. Me having a roommate may have something to do with it.

Quick tip: when i need my lips to appear extra curvacious (when i am going out or have something important) i make sure to apply lanolin on mi lips the night before

@Jennifer i tried that already, but constantly needing a refill plus dripping on the wooden flooring makes it be a rather inefficient and expensive route

@lobotomize, relying on store-bought popsicles can be pricy, sure. My diet at the time contained at least 4 liters of juice and raw milk so I just froze them in popsicle molds with drip guards similar to these:

And below is the cooling wrap. It stays cool for hours—I use it while mountain climbing in the summer—and it’s drip-free:

@Jennifer by pricing i was refering to the wooden flooring developing little pregnancy bums from the wetting.
