The BBC is leading the Charge of the Global Warming Bullshit Brigade as usual:
Do those women look particularly heat-stressed to you? They don’t to me. The woman in the centre does look a bit pissed off that someone is pointing a camera at her though! Is this the best the BBC could do to depict the depth of human suffering on our hottest day ever?
This is what Big Brother Corporation is claiming:
The world's average temperature reached a new high on Monday 3 July, topping 17 degrees Celsius for the first time.
Scientists say the reading was the highest in any instrumental record dating back to the end of the 19th century.
The high heat is due to a combination of the El Niño weather event and ongoing emissions of carbon dioxide.
Researchers believe there will be more records in the coming months as El Niño strengthens.
Since the start of this year, researchers have been growing increasingly concerned about rapidly rising temperatures on land and at sea.
Record spring heat in Spain and in many countries in Asia was followed by marine heatwaves in places that don't normally see them, such as in the North Sea.
This week China continued to experience an enduring heatwave with temperatures in some places above 35C, while the southern US has also been subject to stifling conditions.
Against this background, the global average temperature reached 17.01C on 3 July, according to the US National Centers for Environmental Prediction.
This broke the previous record of 16.92C that had stood since August 2016.
Monday's high was also the warmest since satellite monitoring began in 1979.
Good grief. One day and they’re wetting their knickers. To be fair, it was one whole month in June and they were wetting their knickers in the UK.
Monday's record temperature comes as the month of June was also confirmed as the hottest June in the global record.
Average temperatures across the planet were 1.46C above the average in the period between 1850 and 1900.
El Nino has only just got going. It will probably peak in autumn and global temperature a few months later during December-February. Can you imagine what these fanatics are going to throw at us during the next six months if this is what they are doing already? Non stop climate alarmist bullshit. I predict it’s going to get very intense, maybe on a par with the nonstop Covid propaganda campaign we endured from spring 2020 onwards.
This is the reality. June was nothing special; it was not statistically warmer than May - and May was no big shakes. We’ve got a long way to go before we see months which are hotter than the very warm months globally which occurred during previous strong El Nino episodes.
Nobody was measuring global mean surface temperature or lower tropospheric temperature on specific days in 1876-1878, but I can tell you, I bet the world was at least as hot then and the weather around the globe just as extreme, if not more so, during that remarkable El Nino episode which I wrote about here:
There was a super El Nino in 1997/98 too, another in 1982/83. There was also a very spectacular and extremely disruptive El Nino in 1876/78 which doesn’t feature too much in climate alarmist reports, funnily enough. Can’t think why, though it might have something to do with the fact that there was virtually no fossil fuel derived CO2 in the atmosphere at that time. That’s just a guess of course but it goes without saying that there was nobody around at the time with the courage or effrontery to admonish the populace of Great Britain, the United States, Canada and other Western nations for causing global climate disruption via an addiction to the ‘in’ 4 x 4 transport of the time, i.e. carts drawn by horses with four hooves.
So, was the El Nino of 1876/78 special? Yes. Was it comparable to the very powerful El Ninos of 1997/98 and 2014/16? Yes. In some respects, 1876/78 was even more extraordinary than either of its modern counterparts and its effects on world weather and society were more widespread and devastating.
But they don’t want you to look at the past; they want you to be hypnotised only by the present so they can hard-sell you their ‘climate emergency’ snake oil. Don’t buy it. Just don’t.
Update:
Here is the current model forecast plume for El Nino. Most models are predicting a weak to moderate event, in which case the effect upon global temperature and the disruption to weather patterns will be modest.
Maybe the journalist who took the picture really adores Asian women and confused the word hottest with temperature rather than attractiveness.
Such obvious horseshite and yet Covid showed just how many people lack critical thinking skills and have joined the sheeple brigade.
