All it takes is one wet bulb event in a city near the equator. The deaths will be among those that can’t access climate control powered by cheap fossil fuels.

And I'd happily bet that even with extra wet bulb events, death rate will be lower and life expectancy higher at the equator. And I would assign a .0001% chance of a single wet bulb event killing millions of people.

I’ll take that bet, at 1000:1 odds; that should still be profitable for you. How do you want to handle it?

Not worth my time at those odds to set it up
