      Probably not, there are some short cycles like El Niño that will see some temporary heating and cooling. But the trend will always be upwards.

      No, we just left El Niño so there is s reasonable chance next year, maybe two years, are a little less warm. It gives the critics the chance to shout at the top of their lungs because we didn’t break every record that year, warming is a hoax. To get walloped with a monster of a heatwave in three years of course.

      Well, I’m not heating up the dirt myself. So they don’t have to prove anything to me… They gotta just deal with the temperature death limit. The critical “wet-bulb temperature” limit is generally considered to be 35°C (95°F) with 100% humidity. At 40C humans struggle and a little more and you’ll not have to worry about them anymore 😉.

    Other places must’ve been hot as hell as in the UK we actually had a slightly cooler June than normal compared to the average. The world climate is well and truly fucked then.

      Western Europe is under the influence of La Niña making it cold. We’re sitting here wondering where the summer went as crops refuse to grow properly because too cold and too wet while in other places people drop dead because of the heat.

        Yeah my little part of the US has been below average the last couple of years too. It was hot this summer for one week.
