Heatwaves will become so extreme in certain regions of the world within decades that human life there will be unsustainable, the United Nations and the Red Cross said Monday.

Heatwaves are predicted to "exceed human physiological and social limits" in the Sahel, the Horn of Africa and south and southwest Asia, with extreme events triggering "large-scale suffering and loss of life", the organisations said.

Unless everyone is already out of there by the time it hits. Which is what we are here to promote.

Quote
Heatwave catastrophes this year in countries like Somalia and Pakistan foreshadow a future with deadlier, more frequent, and more intense heat-related humanitarian emergencies, they warned in a joint report.
...
"There are clear limits beyond which people exposed to extreme heat and humidity cannot survive," the report said.



"There are also likely to be levels of extreme heat beyond which societies may find it practically impossible to deliver effective adaptation for all.

"On current trajectories, heatwaves could meet and exceed these physiological and social limits in the coming decades, including in regions such as the Sahel and south and southwest Asia."

It warned that the impact of this would be "large-scale suffering and loss of life, population movements and further entrenched inequality."

I have highlighted the most important part in bold.

Quote
The report said extreme heat was a "silent killer", claiming thousands of lives each year as the deadliest weather-related hazard -- and the dangers were set to grow at an "alarming rate" due to climate change.

Why not simply say that Western civilization is a silent killer?

Quote
According to a study cited by the report, the number of poor people living in extreme heat conditions in urban areas will jump by 700 percent by 2050, particularly in west Africa and southeast Asia.

"Projected future death rates from extreme heat are staggeringly high -- comparable in magnitude by the end of the century to all cancers or all infectious diseases -- and staggeringly unequal," the report said.
...
As the climate crisis goes unchecked, extreme weather events, such as heatwaves and floods, are hitting the most vulnerable people the hardest," said UN humanitarian chief Martin Griffiths.

Not only the most vulnerable, but those who contributed the least to global warming.

Quote
OCHA and the IFRC said there were limits to extreme heat adaptation measures.

Some, such as increasing energy-intensive air conditioning, are costly, environmentally unsustainable and contribute themselves to climate change.

As I keep saying, problems created by Western civilization cannot be solved by more Western civilization.

From the comments:

Give it time. A few decades of increasing mass death should be convincing to a few more folks.

Yes, but it will only convince Orban and his thugs to close the borders even more tightly.

Quote
Let us presume that is true, if so then there will equally be any number of places that will also be inhabitable that are currently too cold!

Yes, which would make them suitable relocation destinations for climate refugees. But they are guarded by Orban and his thugs.

Quote
Why don't those people move to the new areas that were created by the warming that were previously too cold to inhabit?

Because Orban and his thugs are obstructing them from doing so.

Quote
hasent mankind kinda like moved over time to more from one extreme to a more less extreme for how many thousands of years? seems like a mass migration is wise

Yes, but to enact this wisdom first requires exterminating Orban and his thugs.

Quote
Poor nations will get poorer.  They will immigrate to richer nations.

Yes, but they will only succeed if we first exterminate Orban and his thugs.
