Intense Heat Wave Raises Questions About Future of U.S. Energy System

1. All of the comments are serious and im here just to do the speaking project💀

2. NBC news needs to talk about ecosia they are a search engine that plants trees.

3. This shows you times are only going to get worse

4. Fake news. No such thing as hot. No such thing as heat.

5. For crying out loud, fire fighters should be making $20+ dollars an hour for what they are doing !
   They are putting themselves on line !!

6. Pff no don't feel bad, no one should ever feel guilty ever!

7. You all deserve this and more

8. In my opinion it’s all the homes being built in the desert and demanding more water. They want green grass in Phoenix? Perhaps we need to make our drinking quality water the priority and NOT landscaping? Or pools?
   Look at how many people now live in NV, AZ, CA. As well as parts of TX?
   California has been warned for decades they won’t be able to get increasing volumes of drinking water?
   We’re still using drinking quality water to flush our toilets 🤷🏼‍♀️🙄

9. We'll have to burn more fossil fuel to counteract this problem.

10. As long as modern civilization exists there will never be a perfect green energy system. Gasoline engines have come a long way with efficiency, reduced emissions and mileage. What concerns me the most is why the current administration is creating fear and condemning petroleum usage. The device you are using to read this was made from fossil fuels. There is alot more than just gas made from petroleum. Is the goal to go back to the stone age?

11. THIS IS A LIE. NBC is not telling you the whole story. Check out the Oppenheimer Ranch Report….

12. And we wasted 50 years not preparing for it when we knew it was coming. Thank corporate America and our worthless politicians for that. Had we just followed the science instead of the greed. Desalinization is the answer.. but it will require green energy to do it because lord knows running that process on fossil fuels would be so expensive that it will never happen. What do the neo con nitwits have to say about climate change now? Nothing. Bunch of science denying dipwads.

13. How to get water??? Electricity can still be sourced.

14. Federal firefighters make $13 an hour and Biden wants to raise it to $15? They deserve at least double that "raise".

15. Isn't there a way to use heat to create power?

16. It’s simple #NoMoreGasCars stop producing them. Keep making #MoreElectricCars Geez how greedy can oil corporation be.

17. HUMAN LABOR WILL PUT PEOPLE TO WORK

18. EVER HEARD OF HUMAN LABOR?

19. Best is to go off grid as soon as possible – put solar on your house plus a battery to store the energy on grey days. The grid is unreliable as we saw in Texas recently.

20. No mention of cutting down U.S. per capita carbon footprint from 16 tons to a sustainable 4 tons?

21. This is what africa deals with on a daily basis

22. O tempo terrível prova que vivemos nos Últimos Dias, de acordo com Mateus Capítulo 24 e 2 Timóteo 3:1-5. Jesus Cristo retornará em breve para retificar essas condições terríveis, pois o Reino pelo qual oramos (Mateus 6:9) em breve dominará a terra (Daniel 2:44). Este Reino será o único Reino restante, e será governado pelo próprio Jesus Cristo no Céu (João 18:36).

23. Stop having kids, dogs and cats.

24. Stop having kids, and limit domestic animals and that means euthanasia for unwanted pets. A finite planet cannot support unlimited population.

    There are other non human citizens on the earth

25. Yes to subsidies for solar panels, hybrid cars, electric cars, and no less than $25/hour for any fire fighter!!! $13/hr? Seriously?

26. The planet is screwed.

27. 1919 oil discovery physics law false claim eliminates Einstein's equal and opposite reactions of tides and winds now nuclear greed created viruses mutatating 30 more years its easy hoover dams that reverse in tides and winds flipping blades sideways vertical and or horizontal

28. trump: fire starts with all that dried leaves and twigs you just left everywhere in the forrest- sweep it up for a start..
    vote for trump- fire goes away like magic…

29. 13 $ an hour ?..less than half what they get in denmark
    and free everything on top of that and 5 week paid holyday..
    be happy they still work for you for 13 $..offering there own lifes as well.

30. Climate change is like covid. There will be a time for you to take the vaccine. But if you did not and end up with covid….. Its too late.

31. Good thing I have properties on the Great Lakes. Don’t see that going anywhere for a while

32. Stop the overpopulation. Stop having kids.

33. Expecting people t o do things to benefit society is hilarious after what we've seen during the pandemic

34. Okay boomers.
    Thanks for letting corporations destroy our planet, way to ruin literally the whole world for everyone.

35. They need to start cutting people power so they get solar.

36. Since when is fire a season?!

37. It’s time for the US government to reach into the HUGE bag of secret free energy patents they own and start using them.

38. Understand WET BULB TEMPERATURES. CRITICAL INFORMATION. LIFE/DEATH FACTOR. When the body Can NOT COOL DOWN, sweat will not stop, resulting in organ failure. This will likely be the beginning of the end for those that cannot cool off.
    The inside body heat must be lower than the outside heat. Or vice versa.

39. Our Electrical GRID will NOT remain intact. Let us NOT LIE to ourselves! Black OUTS are coming. Not a joke!

40. I do solve water problem in any place of the world!+nine nine eight nine nine five five five four three seven four!))))
