And that could actually make up about half of the mystery heat. And scientists think decreases in other clouds that were also formerly caused by pollution might make up another chunk.

Yeah, it's not ideal. But scientists like Schmidt say that that just means cutting fossil fuel emissions is even more important to get at that main driver of climate change.

I mean, because it kind of is everywhere and there's data to back that up. Brand name Wegovi sales have been increasing, for example, and the companies that make these drugs have been ramping up production to deal with the fact that they initially weren't able to meet this huge demand. And ZocDoc says more patients are trying to book appointments to ask about these drugs than really ever before.

Yeah, sure. So that's a fair question. So they work basically by mimicking a hormone in the body that tells the pancreas to make more insulin, and that lowers blood sugar, and that keeps you feeling full, things like that. So it started as a diabetes drug, but it has been super effective at helping people lose weight. Mm-hmm.

But the drugs have been in short supply thanks to really unprecedented demand, which has allowed this sort of strange thing to happen, which is that pharmacies can essentially make copies of brand-name drugs when those medicines are in short supply. And that process, which is different from the production of generic drugs, is called compounding. That's so cool.
