The Democrats’ focus on affordability seems to be a winning strategy
(we’ll know for sure in a little over two weeks).
But we mustn’t lose sight of the

Heat killed a record 50,000 people in European cities this summer,
new research suggests,
with scientists blaming climate breakdown for two in every three of the deaths.
Hot days pushed vulnerable bodies into overdrive and warm nights prevented them from recovering.
