Beneath the white-gold glare of the Mumbai sky, where the salt of the Arabian Sea meets the city’s pulse, ‘The Heat Burden’ at Mumbai Climate Week was not merely an exhibit for the eyes; it was an experience for the skin and mind. It invited visitors to step out of the cool, comfortable indoors and truly meet the ‘heat.’ As feet met the blistering pavement of the footpath and wheels spun through the streets of South Mumbai, the atmosphere ceased to be a backdrop, and the weight of the heat could be felt. Such heat is constant and invisible, and it now interferes with our daily lives.
