Dear Amisha
I hope everything is fine at your end. You know we all are undergoing great stress and troubles due to incense heat this year. This is all due to the month-long temperatures being about 43°C. This is due to global warming. Climate changes are taking place due to continuous urbanization, deforestation and burning of fossil fuel. This has become a problem at the international level. But if we take some precautions we can keep ourselves free from the impact of this hot season.
Wear loose and light-coloured cotton clothes, as they act as coolers to the body. Go swimming and take a shower whenever you feel the heat. Eat fruit salad and summer season fruits like melons and watermelons. Nimbu paani and aam panna can help us face the hot season. Wear slippers or sandals instead of shoes. Wear a solar hat or cap on your head to ward off heat, and take an umbrella over your head when you go out. Read books, watch TV, or play indoor games to ward off lethargy during summer.
I am sure that if we take these steps we can make our summer not a sad and bad experience. I hope you'll like these things and adopt them.
Yours sincerely
Kamna
