Haze Equal Traffic Deaths: U.S. Breathes Like A Clueless Driver
In a shocking turn of events, the U.S. haze now kills about 40,000 people annually—exactly the death rate from traffic crashes according to sources. Experts confirm pollution doesn’t just irritate lungs; it apparently moonlights as a serial traffic killer. Climate change, the nation's uninvited plus-one, is expected to make this toxic cocktail worse by turning the air into a deadly smoothie. Scientists warn this haze has not been invited to any barbecues but crashes those too, acting like the nation's unlicensed air traffic controller managing death with eerie precision. Authorities recommend avoiding breath unless seriously committed to danger.
