💨 Abstract

As India prepares for increasingly severe summers, rural communities in heatwave-prone states are adopting traditional, low-cost methods to cope with rising temperatures. These strategies include building check dams, planting native trees, and modifying daily routines. The Indian Meteorological Department anticipates a rise in heatwave days by up to 7-8 in northern and western regions.
