Wet bulb is when you take a thermometer and pour water over it them lightly blow air into it then reading the temperature.

It stimulates cooling through evaporation and this post basically means you could drench yourself in water and still die from the heat.

This is the place for discussing the potential collapse of modern civilization and the environment.

Collapse, in this context, refers to the significant loss of an established level or complexity towards a much simpler state. It can occur differently within many areas, orderly or chaotically, and be willing or unwilling. It does not necessarily imply human extinction or a singular, global event. Although, the longer the duration, the more it resembles a ‘decline’ instead of collapse.
