Summary
San Diego’s heat wave is no longer a seasonal nuisance—it’s a deadly, escalating crisis. With six dangerously hot days a year now (up from zero in the 1950s), extreme heat has become the top weather-related killer in the U.S., straining healthcare, raising energy bills, and disproportionately harming the elderly, kids, and sick. Schools are now legally required to protect students from heat, after a tragic 12-year-old’s death during PE. California’s heat events alone cost $7.7 billion since 2013. The fix? Transition to clean energy. Until then, stay cool, hydrate, and use cooling centers. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
