Answer:
The question is incomplete. The editorial cartoon image is lacking. Here is the image the question's referring to.
The details that best support the purpose of this editorial cartoon are:
- the "will work for air conditioning" sign
- the rat sweating on the sidewalk
- the comfortable man in the air-conditioned car
Explanation:
There are a number of details to consider in the editorial cartoon to understand its message. It includes the man holding the sign, the rat, and the man riding in an air-conditioned car.
But, if you look closely, Signe Wilkinson signed this on 7-6-2010 for the Philadelphia Daily News. It is better to know this date and place. But what is its importance? <em><u>During this time, the Philadelphia set a new record regarding heatwave. The temperature reached 103 degrees breaking the old record of 98 degrees in 1994. </u></em>
Climate change and global warming clearly affect people in the middle class or the working class who cannot afford to buy an air-conditioned car. And they are willing to work on breathing cold air. It also displays that not only humans are affected by a heatwave, but also animals, thus, the sweating rat.
<em><u>During this time, in 2010, people have died because of the heatwave. And the air conditioning business was booming because of in-demand repairs. </u></em>
