A very favorable technology curve we should invest in wholeheartedly.

We are approaching the warmest global surface air temperature anomaly on record (1.15C on Nov 18 2023) as record El Niño approaches peak: pulse.climate.copernicus.eu

Is a daily global surface temperature anomaly more than 2.0°C above the 1850-1900 pre-industrial baseline coming by the end of next week? All the stars will be at the big event. Even the Climate 8-Ball will be there. Don't miss out! Source: www.karstenhaustein.com/climate

The study say's we will cross 1.5ºC permanently in 2028 The C3S Temperature Trend Monitor agrees. (See apps.climate.copernicus.eu/global-tempe...) It currently projects January 2029 but before this year is out this will be showing as late 2028.

The more you know ... The 4-year running average for the global temperature anomaly is forecast to break the Paris Limit of 1.5°C over the 1850-1900 pre-industrial baseline on November 17, 2026. We'll be covering the moment. Stay tuned!

Outside of the #Antarctic, temperatures have been above average for nearly all areas of our planet in the last three months. This is clear when looking at each latitude band.

meanwhile, in reality....

Looks like we'll be hearing a lot about fiscal dominance. And financial repression.

Imagine that. I wonder if there is any reason why this hurricane would develop so fast.

Oh my gosh, the best political video on YouTube just got updated after a decade and a half and it's still just perfect! It visualizes something that I've talked about a lot since the first video came out: The real problem is the billionaire class. www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Gxl...

uh-oh

The latest Nino 3.4 sea-surface temperature (preliminary) is 2.78°C above the 1991-2020 baseline, marking the 99th consecutive daily record, a full 0.79°C higher than the previous daily record set in 1997. The Climate Casino is taking the OVER on 3.0°C by the end of September.

well look at that

And we have a new all-time record warm *absolute* temperature for the oceans, according to ERA5 (which goes back to 1940): August 21st likely marked the warmest Sea Surface Temperatures have been for the entire Holocene period. Should be major news!

Believe it or not, today might be as cool as it gets for future August 13ths. It’s hard not to be cynical when energy policymakers simply ignore the obvious warning signs.

Not good.

does not look good

A first year above 2C in the mid-2030s now looks plausible. 0.5C was first passed in 1980, 1.0C in 2010 and 1.5C in 2024. The 15-year trend runs at 0.42C per decade. The 2026 and 2027 points for the current El Nino are estimates. We're not remotely ready!

This is going to be a big big deal.

10 years until 2.0°C. And gov't policy seem all-in on getting there sooner.

Wow - the average global sea surface temperature outside of the polar regions is currently tied for the all-time absolute hottest on record (in the NOAA/OISST dataset). The record was in 2024. More graphics like this at www.climatecentral.org/climate-brie... 🌊

Some progressions are good to see.

It's a system with it's own scary momentum now.

very frustrating that we know so much yet take so little heed.

Breaking News! Car Soup Alert! In May, the 36-month running average for "global total column precipitable water" set a new record high ... for the 20th month in a row.

OK so is it safe to say that "something is happening" ?!

Very good...

This is an awesome milestone. Keep it going....

Fight.

Catching a glimpse of the future here.

Nothing good to see here.

We need more of this...

Breaking News! Code Yikes! The latest CERES data for March just dropped and the planet is now at its fastest rate of heating since January, 2024. Over the last 12 months Earth warmed at a rate of about 13.16 Hiroshimas per second, or about 1.14 million Hiroshimas per day.
