Is India ready for the extreme heat of a 1.5C world? In a new Sustainable Futures Collaborative report, we conduct the 1st multi-city analysis of the implementation of heat actions in India. We focused on 11% of the urban pop with some of the highest increases in heat risk. sustainablefutures.org/publication/is…

Our new report is out, trying to map out how Indian cities are placed to deal with the onslaught of extreme heat in a 1.5 degree world. We list a series of reasonably practical policy solutions that could help prepare.
