Special Edition: Electricity Dilemma- Can America Keep Up?

from The NewsWorthy

Much of the country has been dealing with a dangerous heat wave this week. This type of intense weather – that gets Americans blasting their AC – is just one reason we're seeing a major surge in demand for electricity. In some areas, the electrical grid is already struggling to keep up. So what's behind the surge, and what can be done to ensure there's enough electricity to meet the growing need? We're digging into the science and data of it all with Dr. Katharine Hayhoe, an award-winning atmospheric scientist.
