“This is a glimpse of not only what our future will look like, but in fact, it will look quite a bit worse than this”

The current summer heat wave is due to climate change, a University of Pennsylvania professor told CNN.that it is currently extremely hot this week due to climate change. However, future problems can be prevented “by getting off fossil fuels.”

“We will see more widespread, and hotter, and longer lasting heat waves in the future if we continue to heat up the planet,” Mann said. “And so all of this gets worse if we continue pumping carbon pollution into the atmosphere and warming up the planet, that’s the bad news.” However, the warning about the heat wave needs historical context, according to a meteorologist and climatologist.

Martz then provided data from the major cities highlighted by CNN to show how historically they have faced hotter days for the same time period.
