Abstract: | Hundreds of air conditioning units adorn an apartment building in Nanjing, China. Credit: Feng Botao/Visual China Group/Getty It’s time to brace for record-breaking heat. Last year was the hottest on record and 2024 is shaping up to be even more extreme, with the mercury soaring close to 50 °C on days in Nevada, Egypt and Australia. June marked the 13th month in a row of chart-topping temperatures globally. And four consecutive days in July were the hottest in recorded history for the entire planet. |
