India can no longer ignore issues like global warming. On the one hand, where there is scorching heat in India, on the other hand, the cold season is also shrinking. The World Bank report, titled 'Climate Investment Opportunities in India's Cooling Zone', informs that the people of India have been troubled by heat waves in the last few years.
According to the news agency PTI, in April 2022, the average temperature in Delhi reached 41 degrees. According to reports, the month of March this year saw an extraordinary rise in temperature. The report also predicted that India would be one of the first countries to be hit by extreme heatwaves and heatwaves. Not only this, but it is also capable of breaking the human survivability limit.
India's economy will be affected by severe heat
The Sixth Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), released in August 2021, warned that people living in the Indian subcontinent would face severe heat waves. The G20 Climate Risk Atlas also warned in 2021 that if carbon emissions remain high, heat waves are likely to last 25 times longer across India by 2036-65. It also warned that rising heatwaves across India could put economic productivity at risk. 75 percent of India's workforce, or 38 million people, work outdoors, which can be vulnerable to heatwaves. At the same time, by the year 2030, 3 crore 40 lakh people may become unemployed due to severe heat.
An analysis by McKinsey & Company, a global management consulting firm, shows that India's labor sector will be adversely affected by the rising heat. The report also said that India's long-term food security and public health security will depend on a reliable cold chain network. Transportation of food and pharmaceutical goods across India requires a system of cold-chain refrigeration that works at every step.
