   Japan is experiencing record heat. Last week, the temperature in eastern Japan reached 40 °C for the fi rst time in June. The hotter than usual weather means people are using their air conditioners more. This is making it diffi cult for power companies to keep up with demand. To help these companies, Japan’s government has asked people to use less electricity. It wants people to turn off unnecessary lights from 3 pm to 6 pm and use air conditioners less. Japan’s heat wave is set to continue. The weather agency said that the country’s rainy season fi nished at its earliest since records began in 1851. This means a longer and hotter summer. There is also a risk of people getting heatstroke. More than 250 people were taken to hospital in Tokyo over the weekend after suff ering from heatstroke. The government is advising people to drink more water and not to exercise outside in the heat.
