Lesson 1 text 3

In many parts of the world, summer has kicked in, and people are really feeling the heat.

But people in one city in the Middle East may have more reason to complain about the heat than anywhere else in the world.

This place is so hot that birds fall from the sky, some streets are air-conditioned, and, allegedly, fish boil in the sea.

This is Kuwait City, the capital of Kuwait, often called the hottest city in the world.

Temperatures often get as hot as 50 degrees Celsius in the summer — and sometimes even higher. In July 2016, the temperature reached 54 degrees Celsius in the north, which is the highest temperature Kuwait has experienced.

People are rarely seen walking outside in the summer, and many residents leave the city while it's this hot.

Kuwait has always been hot, but climate change has made the summers hotter and longer.

According to the Emirates Policy Center, between 1962 and 1999 there were 18 days when the temperature in Kuwait was 50 degrees Celsius or higher. Between 2000 and 2021, the number of days was 80 — and 64 of those were between 2010 and 2021.

The country is also getting less rain than before. As a result, it's experiencing more frequent and intense dust storms.

Living in these high temperatures is not good for humans. A study by the University of Roehampton in London found that the human body has an upper temperature limit of between 40 degrees and 50 degrees before it starts to malfunction.

At higher temperatures, a person may start to experience "heat stress," which can cause things like confusion, nausea, dizziness and fainting — and can be fatal.

Some may say that Kuwait is contributing to its own problems, since it's one of the world's largest emitters per capita of carbon dioxide, and uses only fossil fuels for energy.

But things may be changing. According to the International Energy Agency, the country plans to generate at least 15% of its energy from renewable sources by 2030.

🔮 El Susurro del Bosque 🌲👁️

Mateo siempre había oído hablar del Bosque de las Sombras, un lugar donde la gente desaparecía sin dejar rastro. Sin embargo, su espíritu aventurero lo llevó a desafiar las advertencias y adentrarse en sus senderos oscuros. Mientras caminaba entre los árboles altos y retorcidos, sintió un escalofrío recorrer su espalda. Todo estaba en completo silencio, sin rastro de viento ni el canto de los pájaros. De repente, escuchó un susurro débil que pronunciaba su nombre. Se giró rápidamente, pero no había nadie.

Aceleró el paso, pero el susurro se hacía más fuerte, más insistente. A su alrededor, las sombras de los árboles parecían moverse. Mateo vio entonces una pequeña cabaña en el centro del bosque, iluminada por una tenue luz. Al entrar, encontró un espejo antiguo cubierto de polvo. En el reflejo, su imagen parpadeaba, como si no fuera completamente real. Cuando intentó tocar el cristal, su reflejo le sonrió de una manera que él no había hecho. De repente, sintió unas manos frías en sus hombros y una voz detrás de él susurró: "Ya tienes su lugar, ahora el mío es tuyo."

Mateo sintió un tirón y todo se volvió oscuro. Cuando abrió los ojos, ya no estaba en la cabaña. Estaba en el espejo, atrapado. Afuera, su reflejo –o lo que parecía ser él– sonrió, se sacudió el polvo de la ropa y salió caminando como si nada hubiera pasado. Desde entonces, en el bosque sigue apareciendo un susurro, llamando a los curiosos… esperando a que alguien más tome su lugar.
