This is an issue about the blacks in America being more exposed to rising temperatures, supposedly from carbon dioxide. Climate change, such as air pollution and rising temperatures affect the blacks, minorities and low-income people which leads them to poor health and economic loss. Its reported that Heat-related deaths among blacks occur at a 150 - 200% greater than for non-Hispanic whites. It also reported that asthma, which has a strong correlation to air pollution, affects blacks at a 36% higher rate of incidence than whites.
If this occurs throughout, we as Malaysians who are dark skinned compared to American Whites, would definitely have to face the same problem in the long-run.
To handle this issue is to get our environmental management persons in charge to run a survey or interview to get the feedback and evidance of this incidence. If proven the same, our government have to implement new methods or technologies of how the keep the dark skinned citizens save for a life without any dangerous illness such as asthma.
