Blazing Temperatures, Broken Records: Responding to the Global Heat Crisis
The summer of 2022 — which brought record-breaking heat waves, heat-related deaths around the globe, pervasive drought, devastating wildfires, and severe rains — ranks among the hottest in recorded history. Scientists agree that without active intervention, the world faces a worsening crisis of more killer heat, humidity, and climate consequences.
