Asphalt Melted in India

Asphalt melting: India heat wave kills over 1,400 people 

With roads melting right before your eyes, the heat has become lethal in India, killing at least 1,412 people in May. India's two southern states, Andhra Pradesh and nearby Telangana, are the worst affected areas. The heat has raged for over a week and the death toll there is said to be more than double the toll from last year's heat wave. In Andhra Pradesh alone, it has reached 1,020.The two states have so far recorded over 800 heat-induced deaths, the Indian Express reported. Hot, dry winds have swept across the capital and most parts of north and central India. City residents have been desperate to buy iced water and cold fruit. The heat wave in India is so intense that streets are melting. High temperature of 122°F. Over 1,100 people dead.

May and June are usually the two hottest months in India, with temperatures easily soaring to 40 Celsius and higher. But according to meteorologists, the number of days when temperatures hit 45 Celsius has increased in the past 15 years. Meteorologists say the scorching spell of weather is most likely to continue for at least another week, with soothing monsoon rains expected to arrive in the southern state of Kerala in the first week of June.

I don't think we understand how hot it is in India. Roads are melting and people are doing all they can to stay cool. The heat occurs from the sun and usually our planet earth doesn't got burned because of the ozone. The ozone nowadays is thinning because of the greenhouse effect, and the greenhouse effects are occur mostly from industrial company. What I got here is that in India there're so many industrial building that made India's ozone (obviously) thinner and let the heat pass over the land. That is why I think the government need to take action to decrease those building to save India from heat wave attacks.
