A recent study which was released this week said that growing climate change could make major cities in the Middle East unfit for human survival. 

The researchers from Loyola Marymount University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology said that if the climate change continues at thins rate, the heat in Persian Gulf could become unbearable.

The study also said that since the Persian Gulf which experiences some of the most extreme temperatures on Earth will be one of the first areas to become unlivable for humans, CNN reported. 

The temperatures all over are rising because of a result of greenhouse gas emissions by humans. The study also said that the difficulty for human survival will not be caused primarily by heat but because of rising levels of humidity too.

The researchers during the study observed the " wet-bulb temperature" which is a combination of humidity and air temperature and is always less than the actual air temperature. In order tor each the findingd the researchers ran computer models to check how the temperature value changes over time with increasing greenhouse gas emission.
