When the previous ocean record for June was set in 2023, scientists described the trends as “worrying”, “terrifying” and “bonkers” because they were so far outside their expectations. That presaged an El Niño and a period of devastating global heatwaves, floods and storms.

That 2023 record has now been surpassed and much of the world is once again seeing an alarming rise in temperatures. Last month, the UK and many other countries in Europe sweltered amid new heat records while Antarctica experienced unprecedentedly balmy winter conditions.

im sure well use the human superpower and normaliase this as we do most other horrors.

    Years of thoughtless industry is the cause and then came along an orange pedo and his billionaire cartel to speed up the process of destroying the only home we have.

    My guess is the billionaires are counting on the planet getting uninhabitable for most of the people so they can enjoy it exclusively.

    They can afford to live in whatever part of the world stays safe or in their bunkers.

    They have no ties to any land or government.

    I sincerely wish them luck trying to survive in a world without the “lowly” workers who made them rich in the first place and sustained their businesses. No parasite can survive without its host.

    This is lies and propaganda. The mildy explosive starter collar will only be used for new employees during their 10 year probationary period. After that it is switched to a lightly exploding ankle monitor to help with worker retention.

    This is why the fossil-fuel gangsters wanted Trump to kill off oceanographic observations.

    It’s only going to get hotter as the El Niño sets in. Luckily, El Niños suppress hurricane development but we should still expect at least one super intense hurricane in the gulf this season with how much heat is present.
