Severe Heatwave Alert for Andhra Pradesh : వేసవి ప్రారంభంలోనే ఎండలు ఠారెత్తిస్తున్నాయి. ఉదయం 9 గంటలు దాటిన తర్వాత బయటకు రావాలంటేనే జనం జంకుతున్నారు. వాతావరణ మార్పుల కారణంగా ఎండల తీవ్రత మరింత పెరిగే ప్రమాదం ఉందని నిపుణులు హెచ్చరిస్తున్నారు. ఈ తరుణంలో వడదెబ్బ తగలకుండా తీసుకోవాల్సిన జాగ్రత్తలపై పర్యావరణవేత్త శ్రీకుమార్తో మా ప్రతినిధి కనకారావు ముఖాముఖి.

00:00Since the beginning of March, there has been a lot of heat in the state.
00:05What kind of measures should be taken to prevent heat stroke?
00:08How should the people be careful?
00:10Dr. Srikumar, an environmentalist, is with us.
00:14Let's ask him about these two things.
00:16Sir, please tell us.
00:17Primarily, how should the people be careful not to be affected by heat stroke?
00:22During the summer months,
00:24from March, April, May and June,
00:26the temperature is around 300 degrees Celsius.
00:28During the summer months,
00:30it is very hot.
00:32The temperature is between 40 and 39 degrees Celsius.
00:34Even above that, our body temperature is around 35 degrees Celsius.
00:36That is 98.4 degrees Fahrenheit.
00:39After 37 degrees Celsius,
00:41there is a lot of alcohol in our body.
00:43It is released through sweat glands.
00:45Sweat glands are released more.
00:47Now, people who travel by RTC buses or non-AC buses,
00:53when we go out in the open,
00:56if possible,
00:58those who have to go out in the sun,
01:00whether they are marketing people,
01:02workers,
01:04or lorry drivers,
01:05or people who travel on the highway,
01:07if possible,
01:09they should wear a helmet.
01:11Also, as far as your ears are concerned,
01:13wear earplugs.
01:15Or you should cover your ears with a cloth.
01:18We should drink water.
01:20Instead of drinking fresh water,
01:22electrolytes,
01:24micro-nutrients,
01:26such as sodium, potassium, magnesium, zinc,
01:31all these things are related to our brain.
01:34When the water in the body decreases,
01:37due to sweat glands,
01:39if a person goes into a coma,
01:41there is a risk of death.
01:43It is called death by sun stroke.
01:45To prevent such deaths,
01:47what we should do is,
01:49compulsorily,
01:51with you,
01:53in good water,
01:55lightly,
01:57if you don't have diabetes,
01:59mix a little salt,
02:01check your blood pressure,
02:03ask the doctor,
02:05or mix electrolytes.
02:07Drink water slowly.
02:09Avoid dehydration.
02:11When you go into a coma,
02:13cover your ears with a cloth,
02:15and take care of yourself.
02:17The people who are exposed to the sun,
02:19are mainly house builders,
02:21small businesses,
02:23how do they take care of themselves?
02:25The house builders,
02:27or any other workers,
02:29or the workers of the slum,
02:31or the workers of the slum,
02:33or the workers of the slum,
02:35or the workers of the slum,
02:37or the workers of the slum,
02:39they supply ORS packets,
02:41and mix ORS in the water,
02:43and they are protected from the sun stroke.
02:45and they are protected from the sun stroke.
02:47and they are protected from the sun stroke.
02:49What kind of treatment
02:51should be done by the government?
02:53What kind of treatment should be done by the government?
02:55In the states of Rajasthan,
02:57according to the Central Government Act,
02:59where it is above 50 degrees,
03:01where it is above 50 degrees,
03:03only the deaths that occur after
03:05the temperature exceeds 50 degrees,
03:07the government compensates them
03:09as natural causes of death.
03:11Because in the coastal areas,
03:13the chance of 50 degrees is less.
03:15If it is 42 degrees,
03:17only 50 degrees will be hot for us.
03:19So, 42-44 people die here.
03:21For these slums,
03:23the intensity of the slums is high.
03:25The government should definitely fight.
03:27Even if it happens to the coastal residents,
03:29even if it happens to the coastal residents,
03:31they should be medically recorded,
03:33and in the right environment,
04:05they should be treated.
04:07They should be treated.
04:09If the slums die,
04:11it will definitely be applied.
04:13If the slums die,
04:15it will definitely be applied.
04:17If the slums die,
04:19it will definitely be applied.
04:21In some cleanliness organizations,
04:23in Vijayawada,
04:25in Vijayawada Municipality,
04:27there is an airport near
04:29Chalivandral.
04:31In the cleanliness organizations,
04:33there is an airport near Chalivandral.
04:35These people should also know
04:37when and how to supply cleanliness
04:39to these places.
04:41How can this method be given
04:43to passer-by & people.
04:45These are human services,
04:47not for the mass use of electricity.
04:49In addition to this,
04:51we should tap water for the turtles.
04:53To the environmentalist,
04:55the government is adjusting
04:57The government is adjusting
04:59the power plan,
05:00The government is adjusting
05:02So, in order to prevent the spread of the virus,
05:05they are saying that it is possible to be careful.
