The Dog Days Of Summer

The dog days refer to the dog star, Sirius, and its position in the heavens. Following Sirius’ annual rise, they are the hottest and most sultry days of summer. Historically, Greek and Roman astrologers referred to the dog days as a period that could bring fever and madness. This year, they ran wild across the globe, trailing wildfires and record-breaking temperatures, and much of the world was in their grip for weeks on end. The dog days are over for now. What stays is that climate change is no longer a two-way debate.
