Heat waves can cause a range of damages, including heat-related illnesses such as heat exhaustion and heat stroke, damage to crops and livestock, increased energy demands leading to power outages, and exacerbation of air pollution and smog. Vulnerable populations such as the elderly, young children, and those with preexisting health conditions are particularly at risk.
