No matter how old I get I still love watching Mob Psycho. When they released S3 I decided to rewatch S1 and S2 and it made me appreciate this show even more. Especially S2. Music, art, animations, character development, everything is just soo good. I’m still getting goosebumps while watching some fight scenes.

Discord could actually be replaced with any mainstream social media platform. Few weeks ago I’ve seen a lot of memes that took air pollution map of Europe and labeled it: “Femboys heat map” or something like that. Poland is usually almost entirely red since air pollution in that country is sometimes literally highest in the world. How are polish people still alive? Well it only happnes during coldest days in winter. As for why that happens? I don’t know. UK used to have similar problem and other countries as well but now only Poland is so bad. You could say because people are poor and they burn whatever they have to keep warm in winter but that can’t be the case. If you look at GDP map of Europe there are more counties that have lower GDP and don’t have that problem.

Coal power plants have very little to do in overall pollution though. Electricity is something you need all year and from what I’ve seen in summer air is clean in entire Europe, there are no exceptions. As for gas I haven’t looked much into that but I remember reading a news story that said Poland was depending on Russian gas until war in Ukraine started. Now they import gas via sea.

[Edit] - small clarification since people downvote this to oblivion. I’m not saying that coal power plants are ok or anything. I’m just saying that most of that pollution is coming from other places.

As for proof: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_in_Europe

According to this table Germany produces twice as much energy as Poland from fossil fuels. How is that Germany has relatively clean air?

If that was the case why in summer there is no such pollution? As far as I know electricity usage is increasing in summer due to air conditioning.

Then how is that Germany is producing twice the energy from fossil fuels than Poland and they still have relatively clean air? Source: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_in_Europe

While I can’t find any relevant statistics I’m sure you’re right. But still, I’ve been in few different countries in Europe and AC isn’t as rare as some might think and I think everyone has a fridge that also has to work extra hard during summer. Compare that to winter, what takes most of the energy? Electric heaters? Doubt many people use that, electricity in Europe is just too expensive. Whatever the case it’s a fact that air is most polluted in winter during the highest cold.
