US workers are demanding protections against deadly heat in the workplace as the country experiences a heatwave and record-breaking temperatures. The economic impact of extreme heat is significant, affecting sectors like insurance, agriculture, labor, and housing. A recent study confirms that human-caused climate change intensifies heatwaves. The heatwave has led to increased energy consumption, disrupted outdoor activities and tourism, and increased healthcare costs. Workers are organizing for better conditions, and a proposed rule may require employers to protect 50 million people exposed to high temperatures. Investors should pay attention to the economic implications of extreme heat and take action to mitigate climate change. #Heatwave #ClimateChange #WorkplaceSafety...
