     Es wird immer heißer. Das nennt man Klimaerwärmung. Wissenschaftler sagen: Menschen sind dümmer, wenn es heiß ist. Sie sagen: Politiker, die alt sind, reden schlecht wenn es heiß ist. In Zukunft sind viele Politiker dümmer.

     @kaia @lain

     Interesting!

     Question:

     When they are inside all day in Parliament for those speeches, I am too assume they dont have AC?

     Politicians are only exposed/notice higher temperatures a fraction of the time. Their car has AC, the buildings have AC, if they are in Parliament all day in debates, they shouldn´t notice a thing.

     Has this been controlled for? I don´t see in the text.

     @kaia @lain Since in many countries in 1950, the buildings WOULD get hot.

     But then the conclusion that "politicians will get dumber" is still invalid. 'Cause eg in Germany they have AC now, so they don´t notice the heat.

     If this is not controlled for, it's an interesting factoid, but it has 0 predictive power for "how they'll debate in the future if it gets hotter outside", unless they do it in the garden! XD
