JAKARTA - Climate change is able to become the biggest threat to mankind. The rise in geothermal temperatures cannot be underestimated because it can invite disaster death. In India, for example. The country of Hindustan was hit by a deadly heat wave in 2015.

This condition has caused panic throughout India. The government is confused, so are the people. As a result, hospitals are full because they can't withstand the heat. The extreme heat wave disaster also cost thousands of people in India lives.

The threat of climate change is now in sight. Human behavior focuses on preventing large-scale consumption of fossil fuels, coal, oil and gas from becoming the estuary. This condition is exacerbated by the wider land clearing.

Forests began to shrink and were replaced with a variety of developments. The results are predictable. Climate change then triggered the presence of another wave of natural disasters. Take for example the heat wave disaster in India in May 2015.

The air temperature in India reaches 45 to 47 degrees Celsius during the day. This condition is different from the air temperature in the past few years. The air temperature in May did indeed increase. However, it did not reach 40 degrees Celsius. This condition brings confusion between Indian officials and people.

Indian officials want people to stay at home during the day when the waves heat up. The people are confused if they are not in the income home. This means that the survival of the Indian people's daily lives is disrupted.

Activities in the hot sun in fact carry disaster. Instead of heat being able to melt the streets, heat waves can also make people dehydrated, depressed, and skin disease. The worst thing about doing activities in the hot sun is death.

Animals in India also die. There is a lot of information from the mass death of animal groups. bats, for example. The animal is considered unable to adapt to extreme heat temperatures. As a result, the heat wave tragedy is also referred to as a Hot Bomb.

A large number of wars were reported to have died near Lake Naukoniha, Korba which is one of the public places for bat movements. Many were found dead on the ground while others were still hanging dead, this was very unusual. While further reports are still awaited, initial reports from doctors indicate the possibility of death due to heat and exposure to solar sinan," said forestry department officer for the Korba region, quoted by the Times of India page, May 25, 2015.

The heat wave is getting more and more unbearable. The people of India tried to overcome it with their own teachings. Some chose to install a cooling room, AC. The conditioning of the room became prima donna because it was able to bring cool air in the house. Even though the air outside is working.

Those who can't afford to come to shopping centers such as malls to cool off, not shopping. Problems arise. Electricity consumption increases. This condition makes the electricity grid in India insufficient for high demand for power. the heat then dominates again.

One by one the victims began to fall. The view of taxi drivers found dead in cars that are the focus of making a living often occurs. There were also several victims who fell due to acute dehydration. Those who died reached 2,500 people.

The Andhra Pradesh area became the worst. The death toll reached 1,735 people. The news of death also affected the full number of hospitals. Many health workers are confused because of patients who come piled up. The majority of them came with fever symptoms and some were unconscious.

This condition makes grief hit all over India. However, again the government cannot do much. The government's most likely effort is to provide compensation money to those who died.

At the All India Institute of Medical Sciences, one of Delhi's largest public hospitals, families come with patients from villages across the country, waiting for promises in the gates. Rest from the heat like a difficult life. The worst conditions happen at night, when the hospital breaks access to the fountain and he is forced to drink hotter water. They were forced to drink the water, but their thirst was not satisfied. They still feel thirsty.
