The theme of the 37th installment is "Answering Questions About Climate Change! Vol. 2: The Future of Seasons, Cold Waves, and Dining Tables." "Do you feel like spring and autumn have been getting shorter lately?" Just when you think things are finally getting more comfortable, the weather suddenly turns cold, and before you can even enjoy your fall clothes, winter arrives. Or, summer days suddenly arrive in February. This "seasonal discomfort" we feel is not just our imagination. In this second installment, we will answer the most frequently asked questions from a total of 1,874 questions submitted by our supporters. "Why do we get so many extreme cold waves and heavy snowfalls despite global warming?" "Will saury and salmon disappear from our dinner tables in the future?" We will delve into what Japan will look like in 100 years, as revealed by the latest weather data. Contents Is Japan a rare region in the world experiencing "longer summers"?
