I worry about how global warming will affect India and the tropics. I can't imagine living in your summers as they are, and I wonder what will happen to crop yields if the number of extra-hot days goes up.
I hope that some subtle climate interaction like clouds or summer rains protects the tropics!
I worry about these things too!
In my garden, I get the scorching heat and dust storms because I have no wind breaks and no trees surrounding us for enough shade patches. It feels like the heat really settles in here. And, it is the middle of a hill, so it seems the extremes are intensified. I know I rarely get rain here, but neighbors a few blocks away will get rain. I see the rain clouds in the distance. Getting closer. I actually feel a few drops now. Then nothing. All that moisture just evaporates before it can touch the ground. Getting hotter and drier than this will not be at all good. Having it happen all over the earth is darn scary.
I'm still looking at options for providing more shade for my garden. We have ways to provide more shade for us humans here, but I don't want my garden to feel left out. Wish it were as easy to find solutions for extra hot on a larger scale. To protect many different ecosystems.
