    I would think the Muslim world would be getting more interested in climate discussions with temps during Hajj being lethal (1200 deaths this year alone)

      Because it’s on a lunar calendar which doesn’t have leap months, the Hajj rotates through the seasons. This means that while we may see something similar in 2025, we’ll stop hearing about heat deaths for quite a while after that.
