Implications for workability and survivability in populations exposed to extreme heat under climate change: a modelling study [1]

Changes in temperature and humidity due to climate change affect living and working conditions. [2]An understanding of the effects of different global temperature changes on population health is needed to inform the continued implementation of the Paris Climate Agreement and to increase global ambitions for greater cuts in emissions. By use of historical and projected climate conditions, we aimed to investigate the effects of climate change on workability (ie, the ability to work) and survivability (the ability to survive).
