An American study published in The Lancet Planetary Health warns that the danger extreme heat poses to older people has been significantly underestimated, as previous research was based on young and healthy people. Researchers from Stanford University modeled how heat will affect older people's health through 2100, concluding that unbearable heat will occur at greater scales and last longer, particularly threatening people in South Asia and the Persian Gulf region.
