lethal wet bulb temperatures
Europe wants to rebalance trade with Beijing, but can’t quit Chinese air conditioners
One country is producing all of the world's air conditioners. I wonder if they're in a better position to endure wet-bulb temperatures than their peers.
Ain’t politicking our way out of this one, chief.
They absolutely can and will. This is a country that can build the infrastructure to keep people from dying of overheating. What's more, this is the country that can export that infrastructure globally, such that its allies will see improved survivability. And that will have cascading knock-on effects.
The ability to survive climate change is the ability to operate as a global center of gravity.
