    Circular definition. You cannot define a word with itself. That is the same as defining a word with an undefined word. Try again. Define 'climate change'.

    They also predict the coastal cities will be destroyed by rising oceans, the world will turn to desert, the polar bears will disappear, dog and cats will get married, etc.

    Okay, lemme try again. When it's hot outside, it's climate change. When it's cold outside, it's weather. How'd I do? Do I win a prize?

    Default GETTING HOTTER: Heat wave expected to bake two-thirds of nation through weekend

    A "major heat wave" is expected to bake two-thirds of the nation through this weekend, with forecasters calling for temperatures to soar across much of the central and eastern U.S., the National Weather Service said.

    Many in those areas could see the hottest temperatures of the year, thanks to a large dome of high pressure that will send temperatures climbing in the coming days, the weather service said.

    Already on Tuesday night, an estimated 34 million people were under heat advisories and another 21 million were under excessive heat warnings, according to the weather service. The affected areas stretched from Texas to much of the Plains. The East Coast is feeling the heat, too, with advisories issued from South Carolina to New Jersey.

    Although he didn't declare a heat emergency, Boston's mayor on Tuesday warned residents to prepare for the heat and take precautions for temperatures expected to be between 85 and 97 degrees, with the hottest forecast on Saturday. With the humidity, it could feel as hot as 105 degrees, the mayor's office said.

    Nope. What is 'hot'? What is 'cold'? What does any of that have to do with climate at all?

    Try again. Define 'climate change'.

    As the globe warms in the years ahead, days with extreme heat are forecast to skyrocket across hundreds of U.S. cities, a new study suggests, perhaps even breaking the "heat index."

    “Our analysis shows a hotter future that’s hard to imagine today,” study co-author Kristina Dahl, a climate scientist at the Union of Concerned Scientists, said in a statement. “Nearly everywhere, people will experience more days of dangerous heat in the next few decades."
