Reply to comment by Sparkykun in Large parts of Europe are warming twice as fast as the planet on average. As a consequence of human emissions of greenhouse gases, the climate across the continent has also become drier, particularly in southern Europe, leading to worse heat waves and an increased risk of fires. by MistWeaver80

Did you have a stroke while writing this? I think I had one trying to understand it.

"Could be burning too much oil in Saudi Arabia affecting European climate?"

The oil in the Earth acts as a coolant system, so depleting it leads to warmer temperatures in the surrounding area

The heat on Earth comes from inside the Earth, not from the sun, so the oil captures some of that heat coming out, and the land above it is not as warm. If the heat comes from the sun, then it would get hotter as one flies towards it, but that’s not the case
