Clearly we need to outlaw home air conditioning so workers stop taking so many water breaks! They just need to acclimatize.
Stopping people from using air conditioners should increase how much water they drink, although possible not increase any break time, since they’ll sweat a lot of the water out. Turning off air conditioners could be really beneficial to the soft drink, and by extension, healthcare industries.
I’ve always believed this to be true. The problem is for me at least it seems that it takes a couple months and by that time the peak is past. 80 degrees in May feels about as tolerable as 95 by the end of summer. Same for cold temperature. 40 in February or March is like t shirt weather.
Yes, we do the same with cold. It’s not for seasons, though. It’s because humans live everywhere and need to be able to adapt. But it’s counterproductive to be very good at keeping yourself warm if you live in the tropics. While it’s not very useful to be able to shed heat efficiently in the polar regions.
On another note, you can build tolerance to capsaicin, the chemical responsible for spicy foods. So you can build tolerance to 2 kinds of heat!
