"Dhaka, the megacity I currently live in, is home to more than 10 million
people. Here everyone, including the limited wildlife this city possesses, is
witnessing what they've never seen in their lifetime.

Not just the capital Dhaka but the entire country, Bangladesh, is experiencing
a heatwave running for 31 days straight. And life here is getting harder and
harder for every living being.

As I write this, the outside world is burning with extreme heat coupled with
high humidity. If you must go outside for some reason, brace yourself — most
likely your head will start spinning within a few minutes as temperatures
continuously hover around 40°C.

It's recorded that eleven people have died of heat stroke across the country in
the last eight days, and with each passing day, the situation is getting
worse."
