Three Stories From A Very Hot July

2024-12-25 10:41:03 source:lotradecoin exchange category:Markets

July was almost certainly the hottest month, globally, on record. It was also a month in which many lives were upended by weather-related disasters — the sort of disasters that are increasingly likely as climate change continues.

So what do the people who lived through those disasters make of all this?

We asked Dr. Frank LoVecchio, an emergency room doctor at Valleywise Health Medical Center in Phoenix, Ariz., about trying to keep people alive who spent too much time out in the deadly heat.

And Michelle Eddleman McCormick, general manager at the Marshfield Village Store in Vermont, about living through extreme flooding.

And Will Nicholls, of the Cree Nation of Mistissini, editor-in-chief of The Nation magazine, about how historic wildfires in northern Quebec have affected his community.

In participating regions, you'll also hear a local news segment to help you make sense of what's going on in your community.
