Over the weekend a young fan died while at a Taylor Swift concert in Rio. While her cause of death has not been revealed, much has been said about the fact that the heat index that day reached 59.3 degrees celsius.

Could this be yet another impact of climate change that we didn't fully comprehend, when attending a concert might just be too dangerous for our health?

In this episode of The Quicky we look at the unexpected ways in which climate change might impact us, and what is being done around the world to try and put a stop to it getting way too hot.
