Experts say we may now need to spend more on cooling our homes than heating them because of climate change. In fact, the International Energy Agency thinks the equivalent of 10 new air conditioners every second will be installed for the next 30 years! This surge in air con will put strain on the world's electricity grids, which are still mostly powered by fossil fuels. The units also pump heat into the streets outside our homes – making cities feel even hotter when we step outside. But there are alternative options – like redesigning houses to include more shading and increase the air flow, or using fans and misting systems. We could also plant more trees or even change the colours of our homes to reflect more sunlight!

For the month of August, we’re highlighting episodes from the 2025-2026 season of Energy Policy Now. We’ll be back with new content, and a new season, on September the 8th. An economic sociologist discusses the growing heat dangers facing last-mile delivery drivers, and why federal protections remain stalled. --- E-commerce has transformed the way goods move through the American economy, driving unprecedented growth in parcel deliveries and intensifying competition among major carriers and the U.S. Postal Service. Yet this push for speed and volume now unfolds amid longer, more intense heat waves, exposing the nation’s roughly 1.5 million delivery drivers to climate-driven temperature extremes that pose growing risks on their routes. In this episode, economic sociologist and Kleinman Center faculty fellow Steve Viscelli discusses how rising heat intersects with the structure of the delivery industry. He describes the job conditions that can leave drivers vulnerable, from demanding routes to the use of monitoring technologies that encourage workers to stay on pace even when temperatures climb. Viscelli looks at the policy landscape that shapes these conditions, explains why federal heat protections for workers have been slow to materialize, and how this reality affects drivers’ day-to-day experience. He also points to steps some states are taking to set their own standards to address hotter and more demanding delivery seasons. Steve Viscelli is an economic and political sociologist at the University of Pennsylvania and a faculty fellow with the Kleinman Center for Energy Policy.

At one point this year, the 50 hottest cities on the planet were all in one country: India. The average peak temperature in those cities was 112 F. India is one of the most climate vulnerable countries in the world, and weather disasters, such as heat waves, have become more extreme and more common in recent years.  So how is this extreme heat affecting people in India? And what needs to change to keep people safe? Flora speaks with Gulrez Azhar, a physician and researcher who has spent much of his career studying the health impacts of heat waves in India.   Guest: Dr. Gulrez Azhar is a physician and researcher studying the health impacts of heat waves in India.  Other episodes you may enjoy: The Alarming Impacts Of Extreme Heat Extreme Heat Is Making Learning—And Teaching—More Difficult Transcripts for each episode are available within 1-3 days at sciencefriday.com.

In this Global Insight episode of the On Aon podcast, Aon leaders examine why extreme heat is emerging as a critical business challenge that demands greater visibility, preparedness and investment. Against the backdrop of heat waves and wildfires across North America and Europe, the discussion explores how heat can create significant financial and operational impacts across organizations, even when physical damage is limited or unseen. The conversation highlights how heat can disrupt workforce productivity, energy systems, infrastructure, supply chains and business continuity simultaneously. It also explores how organizations can use climate analytics, engineering insight, scenario planning and risk transfer to better understand exposure, make more informed capital decisions and build resilience that helps them stay ahead of evolving climate risks. Key Takeaways:        Extreme heat is becoming a serious business risk. Its impact extends well beyond employee wellbeing, creating challenges across operations, supply chains, infrastructure, energy systems and financial performance. Organizations need a clearer understanding of how heat affects their facilities, suppliers, workforce's performance and critical dependencies across their value chain. Climate analytics, risk engineering, adaptation planning and risk transfer can help organizations prioritize investments, protect operations and stay ahead of increasingly frequent heat-related disruptions. Experts in this episode:      Liz Henderson, Global Head of Climate Risk Advisory, Aon Josh Turner, Climate Advisory Product Manager, Aon Key Moments:        (02:20) Why extreme heat is rising on leadership agendas, including the growing financial exposure associated with higher temperatures, aging infrastructure and more frequent heat events.     (6:05) How heat creates cascading business impacts, from workforce productivity and construction delays to equipment performance, energy demand, cooling costs and transportation disruption. (20:20) How organizations can move from awareness to action through exposure analysis, mitigation and adaptation planning and risk transfer strategies that support long-term resilience. Soundbites:        Liz Henderson:   “It's a risk amplifier in general. So across different industries like the food industry or construction, they might be worried about worker productivity, business downtime, crop impacts. And the underlying cause of those things is climate change risks and things like extreme heat.” Josh Turner:   “Extreme heat waves are becoming more common as the climate is shifting in ways that make historical averages a pretty unreliable guide for planning.”  

Extreme heatwaves are becoming more frequent across the globe, not only in countries used to cooler climates, but also in those already familiar with significantly hotter temperatures. Intense heat can have an impact on the human body, from heat stroke to dehydration to skin damage. Economies can suffer as drought conditions impact farming communities. Built up urban areas can exacerbate the temperatures caused by heatwaves. And it can further expose already existing inequalities in society. There is advice out there on how to protect ourselves. There are tried and tested models of sustainable farming. Some urban spaces are being redesigned to accommodate heat extremes, and some major cities are taking action to address the imbalances caused by extreme heat. But do they all go far enough? On this week's Inquiry we're asking, ‘Can we live with extreme heat?'Contributors: Prof Ollie Jay, director of Heat and Health Research Centre, University of Sydney, Australia Lindiwe Majele Sibanda, animal scientist, chairperson of the Council of the National University of Science & Technology, Zimbabwe Winston Chow, co-chair, IPPC Working Group II, professor of urban climate, Singapore Management University Diana Liverman, professor of geography, University of Arizona, Tuscon, USA(Photo: Two people walking with blue umbrellas to protect themselves from the sun in front of the Colosseum in Rome, Italy.

Jeremy Zakis reports meteorologists predict a record-breaking Super El Niño, which is expected to cause extreme heat and unpredictable drought patterns globally. Currently, Sydney's winter is unusually cold and dry, causing physical discomfort for residents. This lack of rainfall threatens the Warragamba Dam supply and points toward a dangerous, early fire season starting in September. This irregular "Godzilla" climate pattern deviates sharply from the typical mild, wet Australian winters usually experienced. (1)

Bruce & Gaydos discuss the extreme heat wave hitting the Valley this weekend.

Extreme heat isn't just an inconvenience. It's a growing public health threat.More than 40 million people across the U.S. have remained under heat alerts this month. Heat remains the deadliest extreme weather event in the United States. At least 44 people have died as a result of July heatwaves. And in Europe, heatwaves killed more than 10,000 people in June, according to health data published this month.Climate change is making heatwaves hotter and more frequent. And high temps aren't just being reported in daytime. Nighttime temperatures are higher than ever. And scientists say that's raising the risk of heat exhaustion and heatstroke – and taking away crucial time for you and the planet to recover.What do you need to know about the effects of heat on your health?

This week, Emily sits down live at Rivian HQ in New York City with long-time friend of the show, Peloton instructor, and HOKA Global Brand Ambassador Becs Gentry. In front of a live audience, Becs opens up about stepping away from the road-racing spotlight and returning to her trail-running roots as she prepares for two of the biggest, high-altitude, high-heat races of her life. She shares how turning 40 has changed her physical relationship with her body, what diligence looks like while juggling motherhood and a full-time career, and why giving yourself grace to rest is just as important as putting in the miles. IN THIS EPISODE Training for Extreme Heat and Altitude: Becs shares the reality of preparing a sea-level body for thousands of feet of elevation gain in 90+ degree heat while balancing her daily responsibilities. The Return to the Trails: Why returning to trail running after years of elite road racing serves as a mental reset, offering much-needed solitude and peace away from constant visibility. Navigating 40 and Body Changes: Becs candidly reflects on how hitting age 40 made her feel more vulnerable to stress and fatigue, and how she's learning to listen to her body's evolving needs. Redefining Diligence and Grace: How juggling motherhood, partnership, and professional commitments reshaped her definition of success—and why showing up on an "A" level isn't always possible or necessary. A Wild Appalachian Trail Run: The unbelievable story of a solo trail run that included close encounters with a bear, a snake, a snapping turtle, a dog, and a porcupine. Recovery and Unplugging: The daily recovery habits keeping her grounded, including acupuncture, Normatec boots, magnesium, reduced screen time, and getting back into reading fiction. Best Advice for Her Younger Self: The piece of wisdom Becs would offer her 30-year-old self looking back on a decade of growth and career transitions. QUOTABLE MOMENTS "Diligence isn't always about showing up on that 'A' level. Diligence is about showing up for all of the hats and the roles that you have Coast to play in your life, and being okay with that." "When you're juggling, you need to know which balls are glass and which balls are rubber—and allow yourself to know which one is which each day." "The world is tough right now, but there is a chance for all of us to see it as a happy place. We just have to consciously correct our algorithms." "Don't be overconfident, but don't undersell yourself."

In episode 257 of America Adapts, host Doug Parsons speaks with Dr. Ladd Keith, associate professor of planning at the University of Arizona and one of the world's leading experts on extreme heat adaptation. As Europe endures another deadly heat wave, Doug and Ladd explore why heat remains the deadliest—and one of the most overlooked—climate hazards. They discuss Arizona's progress in reducing heat-related deaths, lessons from Europe and India, the growing challenges facing rural communities, and how cuts to federal funding threaten adaptation efforts just as they are beginning to scale. The conversation also examines why communities must stop planning for today's climate and prepare for a hotter future, how urban planning can address multiple climate risks at once, and why building public awareness is essential if climate adaptation is going to keep pace with a rapidly changing world.

Our current heatwave may have come to an end, but odds are good that we'll have another one. So, when the high temperatures are here, how do you exercise or work outdoors? How do they do it in Australia?John Gibbons, Environmental Journalist and author, joins Seán to discuss.

Jeremy Zakis details Australia's preparations for a potential record-breaking "Super El Niño," which threatens to trigger extreme heat and devastating eucalyptus forest fires. Concurrently, John Batchelor reports on the severe smoke and air quality issues in New England resulting from massive wildfires in Canada. (2)

The extreme heat that's becoming far more common in a warming world is now being linked to dental problems. As the body prioritizes sweat for cooling over saliva production, the resulting dry mouth can have devastating impacts on your teeth, and a dentist in Pakistan is documenting a tooth decay trend among his patients who work outdoors in the heat for prolonged periods. Also, cheap and convenient plastic products are everywhere you turn, and the microplastics they break down to are now in our water, soil, air, and deep inside our bodies. Joining us to discuss her 2025 book The Problem with Plastic: How We Can Save Ourselves and Our Planet Before It's Too Late is Judith Enck, a former EPA Regional Administrator and the founder and President of the advocacy group Beyond Plastics.   Plus -- it's peak summer travel season, and for many people traveling in the US that means a visit to a national park or monument. After all, "America's crown jewels” are ideal places to disconnect and reconnect with nature and our shared history. Will Shafroth, recently retired CEO of the National Park Foundation, takes a virtual road trip of sorts with us to share the magic of the national parks. Learn more about your ad choices.

Just before 8 a.m. on Tuesday morning, the temperature was already pushing 80 degrees near downtown St. Paul, where Michael New was working on construction at the John Ireland Bridge. He wears long sleeves, a face mask and sunglasses on days like this. “I would recommend keeping your skin covered so the sun isn't beating on your skin, wear wicking material, I prefer a face mask just to keep the sun off me,” said New. New says he plans to drink a lot of water and get in the shade when he can. He and other outdoor workers in farming, forestry, delivery and construction will be outside in extreme heat this week. Stacy Arnold is director of safety for the Associated General Contractors of Minnesota. She spoked with Minnesota Now host Nina Moini about how she works to help employers in construction adopt safer practices around heat and other hazards.

The world feels like it is shaking, literally and figuratively.Across the United States and Europe, brutal heat waves are pushing temperatures into dangerous territory, straining power grids, overwhelming cities, and raising serious questions about what is happening to our planet. At the same time, Venezuela has been rocked by powerful earthquakes, with strange reports of lights in the sky leaving people wondering if these events are simply natural disasters — or signs of something deeper.On this episode of Slingshot Nation, we're looking at the chaos from every angle.Is the sun the common denominator? Are solar storms, radiation, and changes in our atmosphere playing a bigger role than we're being told? Or is there another possibility,  that manmade technology, weather manipulation, geoengineering, or hidden systems are helping drive the instability we're seeing around the world?From record heat to earthquake lights, from official explanations to the theories people are afraid to say out loud, we're asking the question everyone is thinking:Is this nature, is this the sun, or is something else turning up the pressure?▶️ Jae Woodward's video breakdown Please pray for Tony's wife, Lindsay, as she battles breast cancer.
