hotter than the sahara normally, or hotter than the sahara right now?

the media focus is on europe, but other regions of the world are experiencing heat waves too and north africa seems to be particularly affected as well, which i see almost no one talk about…

Pretty sure the warnings were back in at least the 70s

A city hotter than parts of the Sahara becomes a headline for a day, then disappears under sport, politics and celebrity gossip.

It really feels like this so much! There were quite some sad climate news this year already, but except the heatwave in Europe, they all got buried by Hormuz strait news, like:

• collapse of AMOC now likely
• collapse of Thwaites now likely
• acceleration rate of warming almost doubled in the past decade to about 0.3 °C/decade

Our winter this year in Southern California was the hottest in recorded history.

..the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) is losing strength.

This is probably affecting this European summer more than anticipated.

Nothing to see here, carry on consuming

Thanks! 😚🇫🇷🥰. Rawwwr

But for real it's like a bloody furnace in here. Please keep the oil in the ground. Would be a lot cooler if you did. 😉

As long as DOW is over 50K we are fine. Everything is fine.

Oh well, I’m sure nothing could have been done to prevent this.

This is not the warning. This is the consequences of corporate and political inaction.

We reap what we sow.

and you want Le Pen as President, I'm sure she'll get right on it

Good. France deserves to suffer for its transgressions against the rest of the human race. Weird that the colonialist scum cant stand the heat native to some of the places they colonized.
