In the next 80 years, going out in the summer will be the same as suicide
It is a time of climate change that makes the summer weather extremely hot. With that heat, no one can live peacefully.
The process of climate change is making summer hot every year. And according to a recent study, it will be time to even go out in some parts of the world to be synonymous with suicide.
Severe drought in India.
Specifically, experts from MIT said that by the end of the 21st century, temperature will increase very strongly in South Asia. At that time, the heat and humidity will make the body unbearable and may die.
Accordingly, the regions that may suffer from this huge amount of heat are India, Bangladesh, southern Pakistan . Overall, there will be about 1.5 billion people affected.
The study is based on data on the body's ability to fight the heat before changes in humidity. For those who do not know, the air is too moist and will cause the body to not escape heat by sweating mechanism, causing heat shock and even death.
Experts use wet-bulb temperature - which is used to measure the possibility of steam rising. The results showed that, when the wet-bulb temperature reached 35 degrees Celsius, people could die after a few hours because they could not be cooled.
Hot sunshine in 2015 has caused many streets in India to melt.
For ease of comparison, today's wet bulb temperature index rarely exceeds 31 degrees Celsius, but that is enough to kill up to 3,500 people in the Persian Gulf in 2015. And according to this study, to the end in the 21st century, the index of wet bulb thermometer can rise from 31 to 34.2 degrees C.
"It will take us to the threshold of survival, because the ability to survive at the web-bulb above 30 is very difficult," said Dr. Elfatih Eltahir.
"Even without the temperature. With such moisture, agricultural output is also affected, people will die of starvation."
By the end of the 21st century, temperature will increase very strongly in South Asia.
The study was published in Press Association.
