Utahns are feeling more extreme summer heat due to climate change, study says

·

Most Americans — and Utahns — face more days of extreme heat each summer than they did a few decades ago, according to a study that highlights the health effects of that trend.
The study released Tuesday by the environmental advocacy group Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC) finds that two-thirds of the U.S. population, or about 210 million people, live in counties that have encountered more extreme heat days each year over the past decade than they did from 1961 to 1990.
