First time the world has exceeded 1.5C for an entire year

10 Frequently Heard Claims Made by Climate Deniers and Whether They’re True or Not A YouGov poll in 2019 showed that 17 percent of Americans believed that “the idea of man-made global warming is a hoax that was invented to deceive people.” -
Nikki Haley is trounced by the ‘none of these candidates’ option.

Haley's only chance is if Trump has a breakdown in the coming weeks. He would have to get a lot worse to have to drop out. Unfortunately for Haley, she will probably have to "suspend" her campaign before Trump is convicted in the Manhattan case next month. -

or cooperating with the authorities. -
When you have 10,000 insurrections storming the Capitol, what do you need guns for? The reason you can't answer is because the insurrectionists were successful in capturing the Capitol without using guns. But what's your point? Are you just trolling? Do you deny that the insurrectionists stopped the certification vote (as planned by Trump)?

Plenty of Deniers here. They pop up from time to time. When they do, I will let you correct them. I am sure you will duly inform them that the predicted warming is here. -

Because the relevant period is after the Industrial Revolution saw the production of significant CO2 by humans, particularly in the last 50 years or so. We know there have been earlier periods of warming, caused by known increases in natural forces. But there are no known increases in natural forces at the present time. So, tracking the impact of human pollution is important in predicting further warming. If there were known increases in natural forcing factors, their impact would be relevant. It's kind of like tracking the past impact of incoming asteroids on climate: not relevant unless we detect a new inconing asteroid. -

I decided to take a look at Denier prediction from Back in the Day: A Friendly Bet on Global Warming This Denier wanted to make a 10 year bet on future warming with Al Gore. His position was that there would be no warming. You can see what happened below, with the green line being the Denier's prediction vs the IPCC projection in red: -

As a historical note, the Deniers used to use 1998 as their baseline, because there was a one time spike in temperature that year. So the more dishonest Deniers used to show a chart like this, and claim there was no warming. -

You are correct, it's the trend that matters: https://www.climate.gov/news-features/understanding-climate/climate-change-global-temperature -
The police escorted some insurrectionists out of the Capitol, rather than force them out. In a few cases, the police followed individuals around the Capitol. Here's an example: https://nypost.com/2023/03/06/jan-6-footage-shows-cops-bringing-qanon-shaman-to-senate-floor/ if you tell me that this makes you think the MAGA Shaman was FBI, then you drank more Kool-Aid than this loser.

https://www.rawstory.com/trump-old-man/ So... Trump hammered Nikki Haley because her husband is not with her on the campaign trial. Because he is on deployment in Africa, serving in the armed forces abroad. "former Trump official Alyssa Farah Griffin also joined the push back, taking to X to call Trump a "sad old man.' "Nikki Haley’s husband is currently deployed abroad serving our country in uniform — Something Donald Trump never did. What a sad old man," she wrote."

In the MAGA world, there is only leader at a time. Some of you may remember when the Leader was Dick Cheney. When the Leader changes, old policy precepts go out the window. When Cheney was in charge, the uneducated were all for war to kill the Muslims. Now, the same people say that war is a bad thing. -

You misread the post. The point is that our civilization would be severely impacted if global temperatures increased by 2 degrees.
