I’m curious about the scientific consensus continually undershooting. At a certain point, if you’re always updating in one direction, shouldn’t you overcorrect a bit?
We’re gonna reach 6 degrees, aren’t we?
Instead of Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon, it’ll be 6 degrees and we’re all bakin’
At this rate that is just the start.
Only 6 degrees? Cmon the wealthy will happily let it run up till we all die
As stupid as this sounds I think we (and really the media, but we know which side they’re on) should be doing this in F for US audiences. Saying “hey, it’s now 5°F hotter than it was in the 1970s” is more immediately meaningful — and the bigger number looks scarier too.
The heat index in my city right now as I type this comment is 42C/107F. And summer is just starting. This is gonna suck.
You and me both…
My weather station a few hours ago at today’s high point…
correction 2023 may was first month to see +1.5 °C
Governments and companies are probably going to spend a lot of money on weather manipulation.
