“The planet is warming at an accelerating rate. We are seeing rapid temperature increases in the ocean, the climate’s largest reservoir of heat,” said Dr Joel Hirschi, the associate head of marine systems modelling at the UK National Oceanography Centre. “The amplitude by which previous sea surface temperatures records were beaten in 2023 and now 2024 exceed expectations, though understanding why this is, is the subject of ongoing research.”
Humanity is on a trajectory to experience the hottest February in recorded history, after a record January, December, November, October, September, August, July, June and May, according to the Berkeley Earth scientist Zeke Hausfather. -
2024-02-17 at 4:41 PM UTCKeep in mind the UK National Oceanography Centre is funded by the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC), which is a collection of far left climate hoax nutjobs within the UK Government, so anything that comes from them is 100% left wing political garbage. It's not an independent source of information, which leaves it without credibility.

If a couple island nations have to sink, or if a couple verdant subtropical nations have to become deserts, what do I care?The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire!

Climate change will be pretty bad for Canada. In my area, our rivers are glacial fed, and those are melting away. It will become very dry.
Fertile plains do not spring up from forests either. Soil under forests is poor, and top soil takes hundreds or even thousands of years to thicken.
Take a peak at the Canadian Shield. No amount of sunshine can turn solid rock into fertile land. -

You lost all credibility with 'soil under forests...'
Soil under forest canopy is the most fertile due to the trees perpetually shedding the leaves which are consumed by microorganisms, worms, bugs, etc, which enrich the soil with nutrients. Most things can't grow in it due to the shade the larger trees provide. Baby trees grow stunted, then a larger tree dies, allowing in sunlight for it to reach its potential.
Think about it...if the soil was poor quality massive trees couldn't grow. Youve nEver seen a giant tree in the desert...because it's sand. -

Right, sure: Alberta or whatever will suck. Rocky Mountain rain shadow will turn it into Nevada 2.0. Whatever. Or, wait... you have oil. Saudi Arabia 2.0. Or really... it'll just make Alberta more "Texas".
I'm talking about a temperate subarctic and tropical freshwater inland seas in Southern Ontario. Canadians no longer being bound to within 100 miles of the 49th parallel. A glorious, warm future. If you want me to fight climate change, you're going to have to secure some tropical overseas territories for Canada - a Maple Hawaii, if you will. I crave warmth, but I am bound eternally to my frozen throne in the wastelands of Canada. I could take 6 months of winter every year if winter were a string of midsummer's nights. -

Youve nEver seen a giant tree in the desert…because it's sand.The soils of the coniferous forest are often low in key minerals and acidic, producing a type of soil called podzol. This soil is generally poor for agricultural use, though it does contain high quantities of organic material and is often well-drained due to the presence of sand mixed in with the soil.

2024-02-17 at 6:09 PM UTCSame average UK January here, rain rain, slight bit of snow, flooding of grassland.
I've lived on this planet 37 years and fuck all is out of the ordinary with regards to the weather here at least. -
