I’m gonna take a wild guess that the “experts” have air-conditioned homes and workplaces.
Make them live without AC for the entire next summer and let’s see if their “expert” opinion changes.
They were asked these questions by journalists and they answered. Don’t blame scientists for idiot media people.

Oh my god, I thought this was an Onion meme.
2023 too, and not a cherry-picked misquote.
WTF.
Yep. Very much so. Same for cold and high altitudes. Our bodies really are extra badass. Low oxygen- more red blood cells and hemoglobin concentration. Cold- blood thickens.
Fun fact: proffesional distance bikers and runners will often go train for several weeks before a race in high altitudes as a means to increase red blood cell counts without “doping”. All the benefits of cheating but without technically cheating.
Just so we’re on the same page, I wasn’t unsure whether it is possible to acclimatise one’s body to different temperatures but whether this was something someone actually had the gall to write about as a “climate solution”.
I used to go on 1-2 hour walks every day, the heat never felt less bad.
Truly top tier post
The craziest thing is this (real) article doesn’t address things like wet bulbs which can be fatal, and no amount of heat tolerance will change that.
So not only is it proof The Washington Post is class traitor garbage, but also that their journalism isn’t even good
no amount of heat tolerance will change that.
Conservatives: “Climate change will be fine. Actually all this extra heat and carbon in the air will be good for the plants. You’ll see.”
Also Conservatives: “MAKE MORE BABIES! ONLY THE FITTEST WILL SURVIVE!”
Also Also Conservatives: “We need to conquer Canada and Greenland for… uh… reasons.”
Step one: undergo a lobotomy
True? Yes, to a point. Climate solution? No.
Fun fact, frogs won’t actually sit in the water, they always jump out when it gets too hot. Hilariously, humans are one of the few species of animals that will cook.
The test was around brain dead frogs to see if they’d jump out or boil to death… Not about functional frogs.
Humans confirmed worse than brain dead frogs
It’s like shooting yourself with smaller bullets to build up a resistance to higher calibers
Let’s see if these experts can build up a tolerance to acute lead poisoning
