Does anyone remember 2023? That legendary hottest year ever?

Well, with nine months of this year behind us, 2024 is now virtually certain to *beat* 2023 as the warmest year on record.

And still, Business As Usual goes on and on...

Did someone already mention the two huuuuuuge drops in temperature during the past 10 years? 🤦🤦‍♂️

MTG Implies Dems Created Hurricane Helene: ‘They Can Control the Weather’

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene claimed Hurricane Helene was a man-made disaster as conspiracies about the storm spread on social medial.

I can only repeat one thing:

YOU VOTED HER INTO OFFICE!

So don't complain and eat up!

@Brokar @breadandcircuses I claim absolutely no ownership of Greene...

@toxtethogrady @breadandcircuses

😂 of course not you personally

@Brokar @breadandcircuses She needs to be careful where she points, or a thunderbolt is going to come down upon her head so fast...

@toxtethogrady @breadandcircuses

Well, it would have already hit her multiple times if the Dems were able to control the weather because we all know that stupidity is a magnet for Dem controlled thunderbolts.

So in conclusion she's the living proof that they can't control it 

@breadandcircuses I'm pretty sure that 2025 will trump 2024 again. Rinse and repeat.

We had our chance. The problem was public knowledge since ~1910.

But profit > life.

@breadandcircuses Wait, how does this work every single time?

@breadandcircuses Rhetorical question, of course, but for those wondering:

"And you may recall that Reagan famously said, “Government is not the solution to our problems. Government is the problem.” And so this was the anti-government, anti-regulation ideology that drove his administration and that has really been prominent in our politics now for decades."

They Knew: How the U.S. Government Helped Cause the Climate Crisis

James Gustave Speth has been calling for action on climate since serving in the White House in the 1970s. In an e360 interview, he talks about his new book, which chronicles how U.S. administrations repeatedly failed to act in response to scientists’ increasingly dire warnings.

@breadandcircuses and chemtrails cause hurricanes not climate change 🥹
@breadandcircuses I'm sure this chart doesn't neatly overlay a chart of Atlantic Cat 5's in any meaningful way

@breadandcircuses

If you blink and lean back, you can already see that it is a parable  

@breadandcircuses So 2024 is on track to be the first year that breaches the "1.5 degree threshold" that IPCC has been telling us we should try to limit global temperature rise to.

This report from 2018 goes into the details of what happens when the global temperature rises by 1.5 degrees Celsius. They projected that to happen between 2030 and 2052, here we are in 2024.
