U.K. Heat Live Updates: Britain’s New Record High Doesn’t Last for Long

I looked it up. That's not what they found.

Since you are both too lazy and too afraid to find the information that shows that high temperature records are being broken at a much higher rate than low temperature records in recent years, I did the research for you. Please read this article carefully and TRY TO UNDERSTAND it for a change. Please pay particular attention to the graph.....

 
LOL Al Gore was 100% correct. AGW is destroying the planet and we are running out of time to fix it. If only we had listened to him over 20 years ago we would be so much better off today.

And yet more psychological projection!!!!!
 
Does anyone remember all the headlines about records being broken during the summer of 2021?
2021 was hot as hell, NASA confirms

Yet the annual average temperature recorded by NASA's GISS who Gavin Schmidt quoted in the article is director of,
shows that 2021 had an average temperature that was much cooler than 2020.
What this should tell us, is that heat waves, and changes in the average temperature, are not that closely linked.
Things like land use change and aerosol clearing may have a lot more to do with heat waves than CO2.

ok
 
Not nothing, but we should identify the correct problem at least.
We do not emit CO2 because we want to, but because of our demand for energy.
We have an energy problem not a CO2 problem, and fossil fuels cannot solve the problem.

I should listen to random guy on the internet over IPCC...why again?
 
The climate is never stable.

Most intelligent people understand that there isn't a giant "carbon dioxide" knob that you can adjust to "stabilize" the climate.
Yes there is a "knob" that controls our temperature and we have turned up to high by digging up releasing more and more fossil carbon that has not seen the light of day for millions of years. Billions of tons of it that will irreversibly change our climate. Disturbances to the carbon cycle are the cause of the most destructive mass extinction in Earth's ancient history only they were caused by volcano's releasing massive amounts of CO2 not humans who did not exist.

Volcanic CO2 triggered the Permian extinction 252 million years ago. “This is highly relevant to present-day climate change,” professor says. The Permian extinction, also called Permian-Triassic extinction or end-Permian extinction is the most severe biodiversity loss in Earth's history.

We have data for 1000 years that accurately shows us the average temperatures have never been higher and are still rising at record rates.
That has nothing to do with my post or anything I've said.

No need to retreat to a position you feel more comfortable arguing - just recognize you learned something today and move on.

Lol!! I acknowledged that the first time someone made that claim. You don't even understand the argument you're trying to refute. Go back to posts 237 and 239.
 
Then get your funeral paid for up front or won't we have funerals anymore as we all die from a big fire ball? Amazing how easy it is to indoctrinate some people.
Please do not reveal the depth of your ignorance. It is not funny and makes you sound like a fool. This is not all about you.

Look at the graph. Look at how the record highs used to be somewhat equal to the record lows. Now look at how the graph shows that many more record highs are now being recorded than record lows. What do you think is causing that? Climate scientists pretty much know. Do you?

They are all like frogs in a pot and the warm water feels great.

Yes. Go back to the posts I mentioned and reread.
 
The devastating effects of climate change that are being felt today could have been avoided if we had acted in time. There a big reason that action on climate change have been delayed for many decades is the destructive influence of both fossil fuel companies and ruthless dictators.



 
Do you understand the different types of CO2 sensitivity the IPCC describes?

Maybe, maybe not. Doesn't matter. I'm not interested in thread games. Maybe another poster is?
 

31,000 now is very few? do you have it in your DNA to admit being wrong?
You might want to read past the headlines, or would that be too much to ask?
"Summary. 97% of working climate scientists say that the temperature is rising, and human activity is a significant contributing factor".
 
So, Science does not matter to you, got it!

Science does. But not "science". And I'm not gonna waste my time with "scientists" attempting to debunk what's obviously, incontrovertibly been proven as scientific fact. I'm sure I could encounter someone on the internet who could make "scientific" arguments as to why the earth is flat - I'm not gonna waste my time.

Have fun.

Ok so rather than bitch and complain about it, what is your solution, electric cars?

Electric cars are your future, like it or not, In just a few years your inefficient, archaic IC motors will be no more than amusing museum exhibits. Here's some more education for you. Naturally the US, behind the times as usual, failed to commit...

Maybe but in the meantime you don't have a war on fossil fuel as you go into green energy incrementally. There is a place for electric vehicles but not entirely in this country as it is way to vast to be practical and universal.
 
Yes. Go back to the posts I mentioned and reread.

I have. They say nothing of merit, just the standard denier talking points. What is your bottom line here? Are you saying that there is no global warming in spite of all the many indications that there are? Fill us in.

What you just mentioned above, and that other nations are funding efforts to reduce their reliance on fossil fuels is one of the main reasons investors don't see the outlook for that industry as a very rosy one, versus just the US policy in this regard. It's why that argument that it's just the current administration's plans alone impacting the industry makes little sense.

If one is looking at a world where 20-30 years down the line fossil fuels will be relied upon less, then expanding infrastructure for that product makes little sense. I do think it's going to be quite a while before we're at a place where fossil fuels and the products that rely on them are at the point where the industry withers away, but making a dent in its use in transportation is going to have an impact; as will more inroads for electricity production.
 
A mere 21C this morning, with an onshore breeze. It's warmer farther inland. "Normal" summer temps return.
