Life At 50 degrees

I watched it. It was only 39 when I was volunteering in South Africa and I couldn't function, I can't imagine what 50 feels like.

No I didnt, but I'll catch it on iplayer. Thanks.

It was horrific. ...Some of these places are all but uninhabitable. and we, in part are causing it.

I’ve been in that heat. Basically I felt very ill within a couple of minutes. I have coped with 40C from time to time and even slightly more but 50 is just dangerous.

The hottest I’ve been in was 42c, that was in Morocco. It felt as if a blow torch was aimed at you.
Interesting fact claimed on the radio this morning.
Every person under 30 ( now) will experience something related to global warming.

If temperatures go that high there will be a mass exodus of people to cooler areas of the planet (as if we don't have enough movement of people now).
Maybe the planet will sort this out by itself......destroy half the population and these pesky humans will not be pouring out so much poison into the atmosphere. After all, the levels of pollution dropped amazingly fast in 2020. The planet took a deep breath and filled its lungs whilst everyone was in lockdown.
