Yes, it is a major deal humanity-wise, but India has been sovereign since 1947 and in the last 12 years made decisions to have the hottest and most polluted cities on the planet. Hellish urban heat island (UHI) construction predominates. Coal power and ICE vehicles ownership were rapidly expanded.
Global climate change, for which the West bears primary fault, is responsible for 1.5c of warming. UHI effects, through decisions India made, are responsible for 6-8c in the NCR alone and 3-5c in most other major cities.
I beg Indians to step up and start making the smart decisions to mitigate the wave of heat deaths drawing closer that will rival the British-created Bengal famine.
