Not cool. But becoming “normal”. Deadly heatwaves kill more people than other climate related catastrophes.
These are the deadly signs of an overheating world fuelled by fossil fuels.

The revolving door between government and industry, Defence Departments and weapons manufacturers, is a key reason why governments around the world spend countless billions on weapons and are out looking for war and conflict. These people profit from it.
