BC is in the midst of a record-breaking heat wave, but most of the province’s politicians aren’t even discussing it.
Only the BC Greens have brought up the term “climate change” to explain why the province is seeing the hottest temperatures ever recorded on the coast and in the Interior. The impacts are widespread, with vaccination clinics forced to relocate to air conditioned sites, businesses closing early and BC Hydro reporting record energy consumption.
Health officials warned that the health risks caused by the heat are now more serious than COVID-19.
Think about that for a second. The pandemic we’ve spent the last 15 months fighting across the globe, that has dramatically changed almost every aspect of our lives and isolated us from our family and friends, is LESS dangerous than the heat we’re now experiencing.
