@reuters: London’s Blackheath is suffering from the impacts of a drought that is hitting half of England. Multiple heatwaves have contributed to drought conditions affecting the whole of Wales and around half of England. The UK received just 35% of average July rainfall, making it the driest July nationally since 1868. #UK #drought #london #climatechange #heatwave
Called black heath because the plague bodies were buried there in chalk pits.

Why is everyone in the comments in denial about climate change? You do realise it's only going to get more extreme from now on, right?

Loads of water in the Thames that the council could figure out a way to pump up to Greenwich and Blackheath parks. Oh wait Thames is now full of sewage thanks to the rich water companies.
