A somewhat sobering research report has been published by Science Magazine on the potential impacts of Global Warming on South Asia. The conclusion is stated as “Previous work has shown that a wet-bulb temperature of 35°C can be considered an upper limit on human survivability. On the basis of an ensemble of high-resolution climate change simulations, we project that extremes of wet-bulb temperature in South Asia are likely to approach and, in a few locations, exceed this critical threshold by the late 21st century under the business-as-usual scenario”. Yet we fight the concept of Global Warming and pass the cost over to our children and their children.
