I just wonder how long it’ll take before it becomes unlivable. Some places will avoid it longer like the UK and colder climates, but just watching the news snippets this morning about all the records being broken for hot temps all over the world while getting the oil changed proved to be a weird and ironic moment.
India in particular is so close to wet bulb temperatures over large parts of the country it's insane scary. I'm just dreading the day I wake up to half of India dead in the streets from overheating.
