Football and climate change: How hotter temperatures are leading to more deaths.

admin

Welcome to SI Climate, our new ongoing series about how sports are adapting to—and affecting—our changing world. Before the Friday-night lights of the fall, there is the weekday afternoon heat of the summer. Scorching, oppressive days of merciless, withering triple-digit temperatures that come accessorized with carpets of humidity. It makes for the kind of conditions that are singularly ill-suited for running around outdoors, never mind doing so while wearing an insulated helmet, and wreathed in a 20-pound carapace of pads.

Each contract can only one sport really amazing High school movie. Sorry, but that’s the way it goes. Think of it as the Queen Bee: a movie that stands out from the crowd of wannabe people, its less savvy themes, its originality, and its lasting impact that can be seen immediately.
