setting records

Over and over again, the deniers claim that "Global warming has stopped". Show them this article including a very instructive graphic. The world climate is setting temperature records. Actually, smashing them.

  1. From the linked article: "This was the highest for June in the 1880–2015 record, surpassing the previous record set in 2012 by 0.11°F (0.06°C)"

    0.06C?

    Boy, there's news.

  2. No news, Tom. It's the hiatus. Meaning we only get record hot months for a while. Boooooring! No news. TOGTFO.

  3. Tom (Fuller?), by how much do you want the previous record to be broken?

    0.06 °C since 2012 is 2 °C/century which, in addition to the ~0.8 °C that has been currently realised, puts the planet well into catastrophic territory - as much as that c-word makes you gag...

    So, by how much would you like to see a three year old record broken? Eh?

  4. @Tom's is a reaction typical of a non-scientist. .06C is not a temperature. It is an indicator of warming constructed from many temperatures around the world. No one feels this "temperature" because it is not attached to a location. It's an indicator.
