Youngsters typically face more danger than adults since they sweat less. Their larger skin surface compared to their small bodies and heightened heat production from their activities augment their vulnerability.
When temperatures rise, the human body turns to perspiration, using the cooling power of evaporating sweat. When the relative humidity is high, the evaporation rate is reduced. The warmth is removed from the body at a lower rate, causing the body to retain more heat than it would in dry air. When heat uptake goes beyond the body's cooling mechanisms, there's a surge in body temperature, posing health risks.
