Due to a cool and rainy summer, Berlin’s outdoor swimming pools have seen a significant drop in visitor numbers, with 300,000 fewer visits compared to the previous year, a decline of 20%.

Early this summer climate alarmists went hysterical as some climate “experts” warned the coming summer would be “hellish” and be among the record hottest, if not the hottest. Instead, it was a rainy one with little heat.

This has negatively impacted revenues and forced the postponement or reduction of planned investments, according to the Berliner Zeitung. Some pools have also stopped heating their water to save on energy costs, resulting in colder temperatures.
