From the Ashes?

Phoenix, Arizona is the US's hottest city. In 2023, it had a 50% increase in heat-related fatalities. Almost 600 folk (mainly the 'unhoused'), died in the heatwaves (https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2023/nov/11/phoenix-heat-deaths-record-climate-crisis). It seems extraordinary, that deaths on this scale, should occur in a modern US city. It's clearly a reminder, that climate change (whether you 'believe' in it or not), will exert an increasing toll even in developed nations. 2024 is likely to be even hotter!
