Over the next century, climate change will likely make extreme heat conditions—and their concordant health risks—much more frequent in nearly every part of the U.S., according to a paper published in the journal Environmental Research Communications.

With no climate action, states across the Southeast and Southern Great Plains regions—including Arkansas, Louisiana, Oklahoma, and Texas—are projected to undergo more than a tripling in the average frequency of days with a heat index above 100°F, from the current 20 to 30 days per year to the equivalent of two to three months per year . . .
. . . With no action to reduce heat-trapping emissions, people in roughly half of Louisiana and a large band of eastern Texas could expect an average of 20 to 28 days per year of off-the charts heat.
