I live in a pretty hot climate, but it’s only really unbearable at times due to shoddy building and bad urban planning. Even then, summer can be difficult.

I can’t imagine what it’s like on the equator, especially in dense urban centres. What’s Mumbai, Bangkok, or Singapore like at the height of the wet season?! How do millions of people function day to day?

    NW Florida here. Lived in Chicago for two years. I’ll take the heat thank you very much. I won’t die if left outside.

      Ironically, I’m Canadian and am more likely to die in the humid heat than the brutal cold 😂 granted, wet cold like you’ll find in Chicago and Toronto are special kinds of hell, no thank you
