DC Edit | How warming has changed winters
Deccan ChronicleAs you talk to friends in different parts of the world, or even across India, or check their social media photographs, with varied expressions in fashion and food, you realise a slightly more holistic impact of global warming. For the luckier ones, the impact is often limited, and can be dealt with by making changes in choices — as the weather gets drier, we plant humidifiers in our rooms, turn up the air-conditioner, or lower it, and shop for clothes as per the weather online which we get delivered to our doorstep. It threatens livelihoods, and questions of survival arise frequently, with seasonal diseases and healthcare concerns precipitating bankruptcy or a debt trap, or yet another forced migration in the quest of minimum wage. For them, in some cities and regions across India, life is enriched by the warmth of good food, houses and good Internet connectivity that bring alive the romance of late night binge watching the best entertainment from across the globe aside from the live telecast of World Cup soccer matches.
