More than a billion Indians face heat waves every year. Experts say the physiological stress of prolonged exposure to hot weather can lead to chronic illnesses and increase people’s chances of dying.
What’s More Dangerous Than India’s Frequent Heat Waves? Heat Stress.
Women who face long-term heat exposure in workplaces and homes are finding it takes a heavy toll on their health and income.

It’s sad. It hurts. Climate change impacts countries & people that are more vulnerable to the impacts & less able to adapt. Aren’t we tired of watching the same scary movie over & over again?

🍫 Your chocolate treats are getting pricier.

Climate change is bringing more extreme heat to West Africa’s cocoa belt—hurting cacao crops and raising costs.

Most people want more climate action. But we think others care far less than they actually do. Talking about climate change can help close this perception gap. #ClimateMatters

Multi-day heat streaks worsen air quality & raise heat illness risks.
🧊 Cooling heat stroke victims “on ice” can drop body temps 3–6x faster & preventing brain damage & organ failure.

@benstracy rides with @PHXFire to see how this works

🌱Planting zones are changing across the US

Since 1950s, Boston has been in zone 7a, but as warming continues due to climate change, that could shift the city 10° warmer than now & into zone 7b by 2036
