"Extreme heat is a powerful risk multiplier and currently threatens the livelihoods of 1.23 billion #people. Extreme heat damages #crops,
stresses #livestock, depletes #fisheries and increases the risk of #wildfires. #Agricultural #workers are 35 times more likely to die from #occupational
#heat #exposure than all workers combined in other sectors. This double blow of #health #risks and
#productivity #loss disproportionately burdens #rural #women "
