My fear is that in 10 years we will be looking back with longing at the temperatures of 2026.

They dress up scientific reticence as principled caution when really it is nothing but cowardice and selfish economic interests. Understandable, but an abnegation of a greater responsibility to truth, to science, and to humanity.

And it is worsened further by climate scientists without any conscience and any sense of morality. “oh but my ego, let me rather say it isn’t as bad and if a billion die, at least my moral compass is so fucked I preferred to think about my ego instead”

Is it just 10-20 more years of new data on the same graphs, and then the scientific reticence version of this: Blue: it's not accelerating Orange: 2010 onwards is very steep Red: yes it was accelerating Yellow: this is fine

We build all kinds of safety features into our buildings, cars, planes, boats, trains, everywhere humans are. But our planet? One big trainwreck happening in slow motion and no one seems to bat an eyelid.

Higher and higher!🎶🎶 youtu.be/l4n6x24RRM4?...

Yes. There will be people who will still deny it while they die to climate change disasters. The disinformation machine in America is unreal. And to some people admitting that a large part of your whole life is a lie, that you are destructively stupid, see Trump supporters, is too much.

You’re probably right.

The fact that this massive temperature anomaly happens at the coldest moment of the year is not a coincidence. The seasonal change and the massive spike are not independent events. The two are dependent and it means big and bad things are now shaking loose.
