Jeff Goodell in his book “The Heat Will Kill You First” explains that as the temperature rises, your body diverts blood from internal organs to the skin to try to cool off. At temperatures of about 100 or hotter, too much blood may leave the brain, causing wooziness or even fainting. The problem at that point is the lack of blood in vital organs. By around 106 to 107 degrees, drinking water is not the solution. If you don’t find shade and cooler air, seizures can occur. It feels like the Earth is undergoing a heat seizure this summer. The climate is unraveling here on Earth. The seizures are going to continue, and they’re going to get worse, if we don’t reduce the heat. ~ Dana Wilde
