It's the dry season when there is always a high level of heat.

Without electricity, how do you cope?

Do you take a shower?

Do you switch on the generator when there is no electricity?

Do you use a rechargeable fan?

I sleep during the daytime in a pool of my sweat. When the environment is too hot I stay outside under shade or take a quick shower. The dry season is affecting NEPA too since they take and bring light every thirty or forty minute interval. To sit and watch a movie to take my mind away is futile because continuous electricity is never guaranteed.

The heat is on another level....and PHCN has a way of making unbearable conditions harder.....I don't enjoy my sleep these days unless generator is on......if only some countries will borrow us small winter in exchange for the heat.

Dearly beloved,
We have all noticed recently that the heat of the day and the night was unbearably high. According to experts, this is due to the heat waves resulting from the emission of greenhouse gases.
The Meteorological Agency warns us to prepare for warmer days and nights. This preparation will require smart coping strategies and participation in climate resilient practices to deal with the damage.
The common effects of heat waves on humans are dehydration that can lead to unconsciousness or death, chicken pox, heat rash, and psychological stress.
In order to cope with the current climatic conditions, the experts advised:

1. Drink more water to stay hydrated.
2. Keep a bottle of water with us to remind us to take water.
3. Avoid alcoholic and caffeinated beverages during this time.
4. Reduce the consumption of proteins rich foods (eg. red meats) as they increase metabolic heat.
5. Feed on fresh fruits and vegetables that are better options.
6. Monitor your blood pressure to make sure you are in the normal range.
7. Stay indoors (in our house or office) between 12 noon and 3pm each day as much as possible.
8. Take baths of cold (Room Temperature) water before going to bed at night.

Let us strive to conform to it because our life depends on it.
Let's be nice to share information with all our acquaintances. (Copied)
