And the thing is, we are already pushing the average way up: “Actual temperatures during the heat dome will be 10-20 degrees above the 30-year average, reaching 90-105 degrees in many eastern United States locations.” (Accuweather 7/3/26). Many of us need to wake up, more of us need to get busy.

The grid is in better shape this summer. Thank solar and batteries.
Nationwide grid reliability has improved since last summer — and new solar and batteries, not aging coal plants, are the main reason.

Denmark's coal-to-wind transition is one of the most dramatic energy transformations of the past three decades. In 1990, coal provided 90% of Danish electricity. Today it is under 3%. Wind now covers roughly 60% of electricity generation. The last coal plant is scheduled to close by 2028.
