The Central England temperature record represents the longest series of monthly temperature observations in existence.
Recent temperatures there are over 1.5 degrees Celsius above the 1961-1990 average, and over 2 degrees above preindustrial values.
Chart: UK Met Office.
This is cartoonish.
A +21°F (+11.7°C) national anomaly over the 1991–2020 baseline is the kind of number you’d expect from a broken model run… not reality.
Yet here we are.
March 20th and the entire country looks like late May (or worse). Records falling coast to coast, warmth saturating everyregion.
But sure—tell me more about how this is “natural variability.” 🤣
44°C in Arizona… in March.
Let that sink in.
Records aren’t just breaking — they’re collapsing.
This isn’t natural variability.
This is human-driven warming, and it’s speeding up. End war - come together and build climate mitigation urgently.
The world’s most respected climate scientist issues alarming remarks.
I bet 99% of the media have no idea who he is. He hasn’t been on Big Brother or I’m a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here…
The rapidly warming Arctic is reshaping our atmosphere by weakening the temperature gradient.
This change allowing polar air to spill farther south & produce intense cold outbreaks even as global average temperatures continue to rise.
A Hidden Antarctic Tipping Point May Have Just Been Triggered
Something unexpected and potentially irreversible is changing Antarctica and we finally know why.
From sea level rise to the slowing of the AMOC, it will change our planet’s climate forever!!
