Is 'heatflation' about to become a more widespread/mainstream concern?
A bit like 'digital divide' we can expect some societies, communities & workers to be better protected (or better equipped) to deal with rising heat (see yesterday's post of record global heat levels), while others may either be unable to cope or will incur considerable costs for heat mitigation.
As these costs enter the supply-chain so we will see growing, accelerating heatflation.
