13 east coast states in the USA have a declared energy emergency with all power producers to operate at full capacity due to the heavy drain on the grid due to air conditioning.
This is only the end of July. August will continue to heat.
It isn’t enough to just produce more power but there needs to be legislation in those states demanding residents and businesses to operate the air conditioning at higher temperatures. It would be best to set temperatures as high as tolerable depending on circumstances and biological need; ie: hospitals.
This is it. This is the climate crisis scientists have warned against. We are facing dire circumstances in high density population areas.
Legislators must act.
