Extreme heat is pushing India to the brink of ‘survivability.’ One obvious solution is also a big part of the problem

By 2050, India will be among the first places where temperatures will cross survivability limits, according to climate experts. And within that time frame, the demand for air conditioners (AC) in the country is also expected to rise nine-fold, outpacing all other appliances, according to a recent report by the International Energy Agency (IEA).

OMG! The weather has been out of control lately.

Hey doc, just wondering, how is "survivability" defined. Is it a specific temperature?

Does it mean everyone living there will die by 2050?

Measuring there temps in the concrete jungles no doubt

It's always "2050", that's how we know it's fake news.
