We seem to be breaking new records constantly at the moment.

Scientists found evidence that climate change made the warmer weather last month more likely.

    We are beating all sorts of records, my concern is that the chnage seems to be speeding up.

    We had a whole stretch a few weeks back where it basically didn’t rain for 3 weeks.

      Oh it’s definitely speeding up. Atlantic sea temperature has been flying up this year. The Antarctic sea ice is freezing at an incredibly slow rate, like it’s 2 million km2 less than where it should be right now.

      It feels like we’re at the start of a Hollywood disaster film, the scientists running around with printouts of data, but they’re not, because they’ve been warning us for decades and now it’s happening.

        If you’re interested in up-to-date data on this sort of stuff, Zach Labe has some really great figures on his website: zachlabe.com

        (I mean, the figures aren’t great because of the ramifications, but they’re clear and concise)
