Amid blistering heatwaves, July is "virtually certain" to be the world's warmest month on record, say scientists.

So hot has the month been to date that researchers are confident the 2019 record will be broken, even with several days to go.

UN chief Antonio Guterres said the planet is entering an "era of global boiling".

Scientists agree the extra heat is mainly linked to fossil fuel use.

US President Joe Biden described climate change as an "existential threat" and that no one "can deny the impact of climate change anymore".

Some experts believe that July might well be the warmest month in the past 120,000 years.

• Greta Thunberg fined over Swedish climate protest
• July heat near 'impossible' without climate change

The facts debunk this report as false... the 1930's were far hotter... the 1970's were far cooler...

You should take your case to NASA, they disagree, but then they have science behind them.

Rules of the forum require that you back up any factual claims to a credible source. I'll be waiting but I won't hold my breath

Wasn't that hot in Chiang Mai this year, about normal IMHO.

Only turned aircon on once.

Unattributed graph and reply removed

Planetary wide temperature averages have basically run between 14ºC and 16ºC through the Interglacial peaks of the last 800,000 years of Ice Ages. They also look to have remained below 18ºC for the last 5.3 million years. Those broad scale planetary average can be viewed in this first graph, taken from the latest paper by James Hansen (and 16 other climate scientists.) See:

PipelinePaper.2023.07.05.pdf

This should add concerns to the way Earth neared 17ºC in the La Nina to neutral year of 2022, and have now spent nearly all of July 2023 ABOVE 17ºC. We are rapidly leaving the Holocene conditions that life on Earth has currently evolved to be supported by.

What is it about you denialists of the existence human-caused warming that seems to make you incapable of understanding that the issue isn't change per se, but rather the accelerated rate of change.?

The fact they relocated many monitors to ground level from the previous 2 meter minimum height tells u everything about this BS!!

Same people in the UK moaning about Climate change and high temperatures are probably the same people moaning about paying too much for gas as its too cold !

It doesn't tell us where you got that story.  Source please.

Waiting on the world’s top polluter (to the north) to make the first substantial move…..

I can only speak for myself, but there are so many parameters that need to change if anyone REALLY wants to slow down the changes. The main factor is a population of 8 billion people and rising. The next factor is the consumption strategy of capitalism - buy as much as you can (and take loans if you can't afford it) so the economy can grow. Another stupid scheme was the selling of carbon rights which made some people very rich and contributed nothing to the reduction of co2.

So all these articles and facts have no real effect on the situation

I'm pretty sure I've read on other sources 120 years, not 120k years. Who has any records from 120k years ago?

What is it about you that you don't understand that there's no proof as yet that the global warming is accelerated by the course of  man.

Some say it is others say it's not .

You can believe what you like just don't say that people are incapable of understanding some things. 

I can say same but you wouldn't  like it Do You?

Have a nice day and be Quiet.

A few May’s ago, 2019? 10 days in a row 43 degrees Celsius. This July was pleasant in comparison

Who says it isn't being accelerated by "man" and what are their qualifications?

What evidence or sources do you have that show the temperature measurements are not correct?

How dare you say such things, don’t you know it will incite hysterical hissy fits of the greenywokiet@rdzies where the belief of solar cycles have no place in that reality and where only skewed political science can exist!

Not only no proof its happening ............. but no proof it would be a bad thing, and no proof it could be changed.

 

But why the alarmists would attack us for our beliefs (+ or -) is not understandable, as there's nothing you or I could do to change anything that the global elites choose to do.

You were the one that brought asphalt and concrete, where did you get that info from that they are included when taking Global temperatures?

 

Where do global temperature data come from?

Modern observations mostly come from weather stations, weather balloons, radars, ships and buoys, and satellites. 

https://climate.nasa.gov/faq/35/where-do-global-temperature-data-come-from/

 

Explainer: How do scientists measure global temperature?

To get a complete picture of Earth’s temperature, scientists combine measurements from the air above land and the ocean surface collected by ships, buoys and sometimes satellites, too.

Even now, you don't acknowledge that it's about rate of change. Instead you deflect by offering the blatantly false assertion that there's no proof etc.. The overwhelming consensus of climatologists is that your claim is nonsense. So why is it that you can't see the difference between change and rate of change?
