Last month was the warmest January on record globally.
It was also separately the warmest January for global land areas and the 2nd warmest for global ocean areas.

So are we just going to keep posting this every month until society collapses and most of us die within 10-20 years?
We’re going to defund NOAA so it can’t be posted and won’t be real!
NOAA will be dismantled first (or they will be forced to massage these numbers somehow)
Toss a coin to ur
witcherclimate scientist employed in the public sector providing publically available datasetsIt’ll take longer that that and society won’t collapse without us experiencing some very painful death throes first. Gonna be a pretty wild ride. I feel bad for our children and their children most of all.
Honestly, at this point, this sounds like the optimistic outlook.
If covid and Trump have taught me anything it’s that the majority of people aren’t willing to do a damned thing until they themselves are hurt in some way. Based on this and my experience with peoples’ unwillingness to admit they’re wrong, I’d say we’ll keep going until the majority of people tap-out from the heat.
In other words, we’re just screwed.
The important question is what you (yes, you, the person reading this) are going to do.
