@badastro As explained (quite accurately) by Homer.

@badastro Hottest year . I think it was caused by continuous and increasing pollution and destruction of forests. What do you think caused it.

@badastro Eh, the last couple of years have been significantly above trend. I'd expect some regression to the (recent, way above historical average) mean soon.

Part of me thinks that setting expectations is important to try and head off the kind of "No global warming since 2024" BS that we're likely to see if there is a regression for a few years, but with the inmates now in charge I'm not sure that even matters anymore...

@badastro I am wondering about the calving off of glacial material that could give further indication, as in, we are losing climate data due to climate change.

@badastro unless you are in western Europe, then you will remember it as “good old warm days”… Seems the North Atlantic current does not like the fresh water rushing in from Greenland so much, that a country without rivers generates, I believe, already all of their electrical needs from hidro….
