The warming risk hiding in chemicals needed to keep cool
While refrigerants in air conditioners and heat pumps are keeping people healthy amid global warming, some experts fear a secret climate impact.
Low-cost cooling measures are offering vital protection for pregnant women in Pakistan’s extreme heat – highlighting practical solutions where electricity and healthcare access are limited.
Amid rising heat, doctors and researchers are focussing on low-tech, inexpensive solutions to suit Pakistan’s context.
It’s well known that hotter temperatures due to climate change are dangerous to human health. But when paired with high humidity, this intense heat can be especially deadly. These extreme weather events, known as humid heat waves, are rapidly intensifying and increasing in frequency as the world warms.
