As we suffer over the next three years, it would pay to remember that this is the warmup round. It’s not over when the nex La Nina offers a brief reprieve.
Perhaps it’s time to prioritise survival over the profits of the shareholders?
Completely agree, but let’s wait another year just to be sure /s
So at what record temperatures do we start giving outdoor workers hazard pay?
Texas is already taking away their water breaks. So probably no time soon.
We wouldn’t want to to needlessly take power away from slave ma… Employers!
I’m confused, the article says
average global temperature reached 17.18 degrees Celsius, or 62.92 degrees Fahrenheit
I must not be understanding something cause to me that’s not very hot.
Not very hot for a chill autumn day. Very hot for the Arctic circle. That’s how averages work.
I have to head out to Houston next week for work and I am not looking forward to how hot it is down there. I can’t even handle the heat up in here in the northeast.
Yeah but its been so disgustingly humid up here. At least in Houston it will feel like youre being baked to death and not smothered with a hot wet blanket…to death.
I’ve got bad news for you if you think Houston isn’t humid.
It’s been 100+ with daily thunderstorms for the past two weeks in Houston 🥲😢
And how does that stand compaired to calculated temperatures from arctic and antarctic ice probes. I dont now the numbers there. Is it higher or lower? Does anyone now a source where you can read those calculations?
They don’t have daily resolution. The daily records only go back a century or so.
But we’re well into hottest temperatures homo sapiens have ever seen and flirting with the hottest homo has ever seen for long term trends.
Sad. that would have really interested me.
