Okay, yes, it's killing people, but they're not people I care about so I can still safely ignore it.

All other things being equal (which they never are), yes.
Not rich so nothing will change
Makes me wonder if Europeans don't know how to handle heat. Or maybe not everywhere is air conditioned? Anyone tell me what it's like over there? I know, it's going to vary wildly by country.
I was a kid in 1980 Oklahoma, the summer of "who shot JR?". We had 50 days of 100F+ weather. Killed my rabbit. :( All that to say, I'm not unsympathetic, but in many places in America, we know how to handle heat.
