Today on The Current:
- We visit a heat lab in Montreal, where scientists are testing the tricks we all use to keep cool. They're looking for the science behind how we cope when the mercury is rising.
- An Air Canada flight en route to Australia made an emergency landing in Hawaii Thursday, after a violent encounter with what's called clear air turbulence. We speak to an expert who says that climate change might make that a more common problem.
