Answer 1

In the United States, heat waves together kill more people during a certain year than all other natural disasters, until 1995, due to the heat waves of the Chicago heat wave, the number of deaths or frustrations could not explain either. Meteorologists and medical scientists are unable to calculate the trauma scale, and political officials have jumped on the source of the city's vulnerabilities. In warm waves, Eric Kleinberg calls us "social autism" about our meteorological anesthesia, examining the social, political and institutional areas of the city, which is worse than this city disaster.
