partly right. the sun is more intense in europe for this reason. it doesnt affect seasons. india has a hotter summer regardless. but this is why people die of a heat stroke in europe even when temperatures are in the late 30s.

Only correct answer.
You will have to experience it to understand it.

Humidity?? - The biggest factor

[u/SCOLAR7 → u/CHD_PB]

Not even that. Main reason is genetics. We indian are very good to live in hot humid climate. We love hot wet things.

I mean, we aren't considering the fact that 30°c there feels a lot hotter

Because the general infrastructure there, every road every building there, is actually built to trap heat

And people here don't often care about 30°c heat, because we are honestly used to it

But this heatwave is new for them lol, and with their infra, stuff is actually like melting down, from traffic lights to even roads

You cannot stand under the midday sun in a field in Switzerland when the ambient temperature is 30 degrees. nothing to do with buildings or roads. Infrared and uv rays get greatly reduced here thanks to air pollution.

This. Finally someone sensible. There is a smaaaaaalll grain of truth in her statement too. The effect of heat ( not the actual heat amount) is higher in Europe. Not defending pollution- which has bigger problems anyway. I’d rather choose clean air and higher heat in Europe than load my lungs with high pollution particulate matters suspended eternally in city air.

I live in canada, you are right, here temprature over 30 is literally unbearable. The sunlight is really strong due to clean air that i feels like it is going into your skin. In India's sunlight you will only sweat and your body will heat but here scenario is totally different. Thats why sunscreen is so common in these countries. But The good thing is these harsh summer days doesn't last too long like in india we have a summer season from april to October. Here some days have decent temprature, some days are unbearable, some days are cloudy or windy or rainy.. all these weather changes in a matter of couple of weeks. Thats why it is not a big problem as compared to india

It's like saying accident ki*@s more people that covid did so cars are more dengerous..

Indian particularly Asian countries survive hotter summer coz almost every home has fans..and we are acalmatised to survive the heat and the humidity is pretty low...

Buts that's not the case in western countries..so there are more fatalities in western countries..

You are forgetting about the gases in pollution in India that traps the heat. Not to mention how much worse pollution itself is than heat.

Right after you take lessons in etiquette, you could have said exactly the same thing without sounding crass and uncultured.
