With more and more people using AC to beat the heat , consumption of power has increased , but power companies are not able to keep up pace , resulting in overload which is bad for our AV gear - especially amplifiers , I am experiencing this in our building .

Yes, climate change includes more extreme weather leading to increased power consumption for heating in winter and cooling in summer.. sadly a significant portion of power generation is from burning coal.

The sad part is, the authorities are very proactive in trimming branches or chopping trees thoughtlessly where it is not really required resulting in less shade from the sun and more heat. There is more concrete and less trees now. Not sure if they are aware of the repercussions with less greenery.

It seems to be a thoughtless exercise and wastage of resources instead of putting them for maintenance of good roads and footpaths.
