But note that this is not just the tropics. The extreme heat event that hit Lytton, in British Columbia, Canada, in 2021, was a startlingly close miss -- yes, the town burned down, but the threshold was not quite crossed. And heat events in arctic Siberia in 2020 were also soberingly close. If we stick to the SSP4 trajectory, nowhere on Earth will be safe.
