## Resource

This Fourth of July scorched the Eastern U.S. with record-breaking heat, forcing cancellations and shattering temperature records — including D.C.’s hottest Independence Day ever. Europe’s been hit three times this summer, with deadly heatwaves and record highs across the UK, France, and Spain. Oceans are warming at alarming rates, triggering marine disasters and coral bleaching, while a looming super El Niño threatens floods and droughts. Scientists now warn the Atlantic’s lifeblood — the Gulf Stream — could collapse within decades, accelerating global chaos. Ironically, our comfort-driven lifestyles fuel the crisis, while the U.S. government actively undermines climate solutions — all as extreme weather becomes the new normal.
