Summary

This heatwave exposed a brutal reality: while bankers sip coffee in chilled Canary Wharf offices, families in poorer neighborhoods battle unbearable heat in their homes. With temperatures soaring and indoor spaces turning into ovens, health risks spike—especially for seniors—and the divide is stark: three times more low-income households face overheating. Historic cafes can’t install AC, and some finance workers chase cool comfort as their career goal. This isn’t just about comfort—it’s about survival, and who gets to stay cool.
