As we race towards a 1.5° world and then 2° understanding who is most at risk near-term (2023-2040) is critical.
One such group are those who live near thermal limits.
What exactly are those limits? This research goes a long way in helping us understand that the thresholds are lower than initially believed and as a consequence there are:
“Greatly enhanced risk to humans as a consequence of empirically determined lower moist heat stress tolerance”
