I’d also like to know how working in 102° temperature today is different than working in 102° temp in 50 years.
Its called acclimation and an aging work force. Folks ain't as heat tolerant today, are not in the same kind of shape and are working past the age when they were retired or dead 50 years ago. It will be even worse 50 years from today. Most 25 year old men today have not spent 25 years playing sports and spending time outdoors like a 25 year old man in 1975 did. It makes a HUGE difference. My dad is 84 years old and has always been more tolerant to heat than me and I am more tolerant than my 24 year old son...because of acclimation.
