Just boosted about it, but yeah, for folks who don't have hot summers usually: cars are deathtraps for pets and children when it's hot. Even a few minutes in the greenhouse of a car can cause harm or death.
In the old days the advice was to just crack open a window but honestly I think it's best to just not leave your kids and pets in the car at all.
I mean, what would actually be best would be a global workers' movement to shut down these ghouls and their carbon-spewing death factories, but until then, be careful with cars and hot weather!
