How protective is air conditioning in preventing deaths amid soaring temperatures and record heat levels? Yale researchers found that AC usage cut the amount of annual heat-related deaths by half in the U.S., saving more than 5,000 lives a year. However, while AC is a highly effective heat-adaption tool, protective effects level off once usage passes a certain point. On days of extreme heat, risk
