Yes, every year will continue to be the new hottest year.

pennomi@lemmy.world on 08 Jul 2024 05:29 collapse

Probably not, there are some short cycles like El Niño that will see some temporary heating and cooling. But the trend will always be upwards.

Huschke@lemmy.world on 08 Jul 2024 12:21 next collapse

I mean, the ocean temperature is unnaturally high, so I wouldn’t get my hopes up. Maybe we’ll get a few months that won’t break records, but I wouldn’t bet on it.

JustZ@lemmy.world on 08 Jul 2024 12:43 next collapse

The predictions take that into account, no?

Tygr@lemmy.world on 09 Jul 2024 13:44 collapse

Until we reach peak and head into another ice age. We’ll have tens of thousands of years in cooler temps though.

Hottest year….so far!

Alternatively, the coldest year for the rest of your life

SlopppyEngineer@lemmy.world on 08 Jul 2024 11:12 next collapse

No, we just left El Niño so there is s reasonable chance next year, maybe two years, are a little less warm. It gives the critics the chance to shout at the top of their lungs because we didn’t break every record that year, warming is a hoax. To get walloped with a monster of a heatwave in three years of course.

Huschke@lemmy.world on 08 Jul 2024 12:18 collapse

Also the coldest for the next decades.

Theres no flipping records being broken here, hottest June ! My arse…

Are you saying recorded temperatures are being made up?

fisco@lemmy.ml on 08 Jul 2024 06:39 collapse

No, I’m saying that “here”, it certainly wasn’t the hottest June on record…

So which planet are you commenting from?

2484345508@lemy.lol on 08 Jul 2024 07:40 next collapse

Planet Denial.

No he is talking about his own roughly 48km^2^ area.

Ignoring the fact that the earth is just slightly larger at 510,064,472 km^2^

fisco@lemmy.ml on 08 Jul 2024 14:26 collapse

Ahhh so its been the hottest June within someone else’s 48km2 patch…got it, thanks 👍🏻

drsilverworm@sh.itjust.works on 09 Jul 2024 01:32 next collapse

It says right there in the post title, “World’s”.

fisco@lemmy.ml on 09 Jul 2024 13:35 collapse

Its funny how a comment gets taken so literally…😅 This planet we call home has been heating & cooling throughout its existence, long before humans were commenting on this natural phenomenon…

WanderingVentra@lemm.ee on 09 Jul 2024 14:20 next collapse

Are people seriously still saying this shit when we see this news story almost every year?

The GLOBAL average is hottest on record. As in, if you take ALL recorded temperatures EVERYWHERE and average them together to get the GLOBAL temperature, it’s breaking records

itslilith@lemmy.blahaj.zone on 08 Jul 2024 08:36 next collapse

The world is larger than just western Europe…

Blackmist@feddit.uk on 08 Jul 2024 09:58 collapse

To be fair, it looks like you’re in Wales. The best you can hope for is “slightly less rainy”.

Wardacus16@lemmy.world on 08 Jul 2024 06:43 next collapse

Other places must’ve been hot as hell as in the UK we actually had a slightly cooler June than normal compared to the average. The world climate is well and truly fucked then.

SlopppyEngineer@lemmy.world on 08 Jul 2024 07:13 collapse

Western Europe is under the influence of La Niña making it cold. We’re sitting here wondering where the summer went as crops refuse to grow properly because too cold and too wet while in other places people drop dead because of the heat.

doingthestuff@lemmy.world on 08 Jul 2024 09:48 collapse

Yeah my little part of the US has been below average the last couple of years too. It was hot this summer for one week.

Man it’s so great how every year for like most of a decade this happens and we still have reams of dipshits all like “iT’s nOT SeTtLEd sCieNCe”

So great

Well, I’m not heating up the dirt myself. So they don’t have to prove anything to me… They gotta just deal with the temperature death limit. The critical “wet-bulb temperature” limit is generally considered to be 35°C (95°F) with 100% humidity. At 40C humans struggle and a little more and you’ll not have to worry about them anymore 😉.

Perfect bad example… Dinosaurs. There are no more dinosaurs 🦕😔.

People. There are no more people. And the planet seems fine.

Dinos just had bad luck. We did this to ourselves.
