A series of climate records on temperature, ocean heat, and Antarctic sea ice have alarmed some scientists who have said their speed and timing is unprecedented.
Dangerous heatwaves in Europe could break further records, the UN has said.
It is hard to immediately link these events to climate change because weather - and oceans - are so complex.
Studies are underway, but scientists already fear some worst-case scenarios are unfolding.

This was a team effort. Congrats to all people for breaking the record
For those of you on the bench, there's still time to get out there, give it your all, and burn a few dumpsters full of oil and coal before the game is over.
Say it! HIPP HIPP ...
I am certain that you did your part, as we all did. Well done chaps.
Wouldn't have been possible without a bunch of new ac systems. Rooftops as far as you can see and everyone has a little outside heater. Aliens must think we are warming the planet on purpose.
We'll break it again next year
"It's extremely hot here in Greece. You can tell by the heat around me." I may never laugh that hard again. Thank you!
No worries it's the earth doing its rounds as it has done for millions of years

@@bbcisaids6727media lies about COVID, lies about Ukraine and is lying about climate change, climate lock downs are coming governments are going to let corporations control the food and everything we eat won't be natural because they are closing down the farms.
@@bbcisaids6727no because television fuels lies about global warming and its causes, then channels that into fear so that bills may be passed for the 1% to continue living the way they are. Our planet will continue to get worse in a multitude of ways before our sun fires a flare our way which at that point our magnetic field will be completely gone allowing the side of the planet that's facing the sun to get roasted. And then the poles which are moving faster and faster finally decide to flip, causing the inertia to wipe most of humanity out in a global flood. Has happened many times, both the flares and the poles but this time both will occur together.
Obviously, you're not planning on sticking around for long. How much do you want for your house?

Its not hot in SE Asia at the moment in fact slightly cooler than normal at 29c
Cause the heatwaves are in a sort of heat dome, and the jet streams are further pushing low pressure/cold air, away from these domes. so places not in these areas I.e uk, some parts of Canada, are feeling it normal, If not colder

Hello from Ireland, 15C / 60F here, only 5 days with no rain in the past 6 weeks. My outdoor cucumbers have given up for this year due to the cold weather, and the outdoor tomatoes are struggling as well. Please send us some of that heat. 🙏🙏🙏
The reason for the cold in Ireland is the melting ice in Antarctica. The cold seawater travels north via the ocean currents. Wait until the southern oceans heat up during the next southern summer. You may then possibly be able to grow cucumbers in January.
@@sandponics "You may then possibly be able to grow cucumbers in January" . goodness me that sounds great, I can't wait for that!!! 😍 Imagine instead of heating in July, we won't even have to heat in January and will be able to grow all year long? Aaaah, sign me up!!!!! 🙏🎉🥳

The UN/US has full control of the weather and also have earthquake weapons and other exotic weapons. I believe Japan has already been hit with those weapons and they were also used in Turkey when Erdogan disobeyed the US and EU dictators.
Is it usually hot in summer in your country in the Far East ? 😂😂😂
Records now prove that energy weapons are hazardous to trees and houses. 👍 Ask the BBC about wild fires in summer.
Midwestern US here. Our temps haven't been too far above normal, but we are in a drought (and that isn't normal in Illinois). The only rain we've gotten are very short showers or destructive storms. And we're still dealing with smoke form the Canadian wildfires
Rubbish.
Vancouver Island Canada - while everywhere else is hot, here it is below average.for next week-- 22 degrees and partly cloudly. Calling for rain next week. Usually it is around 27-30 degrees this time of year and quite dry. Feels like early spring or fall. I am not complaining as I see so many people around the world suffering greatly from too much heat. But, weather here is not really normal either. PS if you can afford to travel here, the summer is so far very moderate and Vancouver Island is a really nice destination.
Same in the UK. But the overall global warming trend is unarguable.
Careful commenting on that. The leftist media might censor you.
Hey, Vancouver Island Gal, can you explain why here in BC we had a heat dome for I think two weeks that killed 619 people, but in parts of the USA three weeks in, and still casualties are under 100? Our heat dome was not as hot as theirs. I just can't seem to figure it out. Peace
Yes! Once I did a house exchange with nice people from Vancouver Island. It's truly a wonderful destination! Flowers Everywhere and many interesting places to visit. Have very nice memories of that particular vacation. Greetings from Western Europe :)
@@ZeroGravity60 Yes, we did, the heat dome was 1 week and I remember it well, we sailed to Pirates Cove and you could smell the sea creatures dying. Even on the water it was crazy hot. I am not disputing climate change at all. Right now it is the opposite of the heat dome--unusually cool.

There is a problem with electric cars: They are 30% heavier than petrol models. Use more of earths minerals. On a long journey on the motorway service station I saw motorists were arguing that they needed to urgently charge their car to get to work. Batteries have a 5-7 year life. Batteries are charged from roadside chargers powered by coal/nuclear power stations. Because the cars are heavier the tyres are bigger with more effect on the road, lastly miles on a full charge depends on the weight its carrying so that 5 people could reduce the mileage by 25%.
Global average temperature is not a reliable figure as it is modelled and not recorded!
Prof. Neil Ferguson should be in jail for his outrageous computer modelling that has killed thousands of people.

And a bit since that: August 2023 hit 1,5C. El Niño season is just started to gather its strenght and will be much devastating in its second year.

Imagine killing all life in the entire universe forever because you don't understand that blankets are warm.
Climate change makes me think of the Fermi Paradox, which questions why-- given the size and age of the universe-- we haven't seen any sign of any other life out there. One possibility is that all civilizations destroy themselves before achieving interstellar travel. I wonder if we are about to be an example of that. Another possibility is that we are actually alone. Life is just that special and rare and unique. And we're on the verge of possibly snuffing it all out.
We have a throw away attitude for life itself just how many ways do we want to self implode, in retrospect humans are slow to acknowledge rapid change like the rest of the ecosystems biomass
@@nsbd90now Assuming that the laws of physics apply to the whole universe, even if an advanced civilisation from the nearest galaxy could work out how to travel at the speed of light it would still take the pilot of a space craft 25000 years to get here.
This is the hottest the planet has been on record but the records only go back 100 years. 100 years of data for a planet that is 4.7 billion years old is a tiny sample size and an insignificant amount of data.
This article itself is misinformation and propaganda!! It states 'climate' records have been broken but that's a lie. Their weather records have!!! See how they conflate the two terms when they feel like it? Yet these same people insist that 'weather isn't climate'. It's embarrassing how desperate they are.
YOU CAN TELL BY THE HEAT
So the high numbers were ground temperature not air temperature. The highest temperature was 32 not 48 which was the ground temperature, weather forcasts measure air temperature.
Well spotted. Was there consistency in the method of measuring temperatures over several decades.
It's the bloody media and the government at it again lying to us to get us to buy more insulation.
There is a standard method that meteorologists use to measure air temperature. They do not measure the temperature of the ground, which would be a LOT hotter, as anyone who has walked on sand in Spain in bare feet would know. 'To measure the temperature accurately we keep our thermometer in a Stevenson screens. This is a white box with slats in it to allow air to flow through the box. Stevenson screens face north, which combined with their colour and slats, give us the best measure of the current temperature, without getting too hot in direct sunlight or being too cool in the shade.'
@@Wordavee1 Yes I understand that, although the journalists apparently did not. I hope that was done by accident and not done intentionally in order to create sensationalised headlines.
Ground temperature great varies depending on what type of ground you're measuring on and what the reference point for comparison purposes is and also ppl would freak out lol
I remember charts in school that included a time period when the Earth’s surface was boiling. So what’s outside is not uncharted. It just means they either didn’t go to school, or they are pushing an agenda.
Agenda being pushed. Nice to see most people in the comment section waking up

@@nuqwestr Hmm, allow me. Your properties are not going up in value at all. The price is going up. Until that is your putative buyers decide your properties will be inundated and unloading said properties will become a problem for the new owners of your properties. And of course it may be difficult to find an insurer willing to take the risk. You can't get a mortgage without insurance. We've gone through this in UK where insurers decline to underwrite flood damage in known flood areas and land running beside rivers. It gets worse for flood affected homeowners in that the Environment Agency is dropping massive hints that some communities might have to be relocated to higher ground. This is because of the cost of building ever larger flood defences. You may not appreciate the above but you're sitting on ever decreasing assets. Once the idea takes hold that seaside properties are at risk you'll discover the property values drop like a stone. You'll see this for yourself ere too long. Don't say you weren't warned.

@@magicskyfairy69 As always, the devil is in the detail. Next summer in the Southern Hemisphere and the following summer in the Nothern Hemisphere will tell a story.
@@sandponics what story do you expect? As far as I can tell, temperatures seem to oscillate around fairly predictable levels, and don't seem to be going in any particular direction. The high thermometer records of the past seem to be much higher than anything we've observed recently, despite media and activist narratives to the contrary. Not for nothing, but the highest temperature on record is 134 F - July 10, 1913 from Death Valley, California. As far as I can tell, that record is safe.
@@magicskyfairy69 Climate scientists are talking about global averages. Situationally, very hot temperatures were probably common during a particular period of the Roman Empire. It was a regional phenomena. Globally, averages are rising. This increases the chance of adverse weather conditions and wet bulb temperatures. Wet bulb temperatures, where the body can no longer sweat to reduce its temperature due the specific conditions of humidity. Where I am currently, It is actually very cool and has been for a few weeks. It’s about being able to understand the context for the wider crisis. Global sea temperatures in particular are drastic right now, which means the likely death or debilitation of much of the ocean flora that produces roughly 50% of our oxygen.

In the last 11 years, I have been through a 1-in-100-year flood, a 1-in-200-year flood, and a super-cell storm so powerful the golf ball-sized hail stones turned my house into Swiss cheese.

In June 1991, Mount Pinatubo in the Philippines exploded, blasting millions of tons of ash and gas over 20 miles high - deep into the stratosphere, a stable layer of our atmosphere above most of the clouds and weather. Certain gases in the massive plume from this volcano acted like a sunshield by scattering some of the sun's light, preventing it from reaching the surface and causing average surface temperatures to drop worldwide by an estimated 0.5 degrees Celsius (0.9 degrees Fahrenheit). "We've been trying to better understand how volcanoes alter the climate for about 30 years now," said Lori Glaze of NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland. "The Mount Saint Helens eruption in 1980 (Washington state) and the El Chichon eruption in 1982 (Mexico) were both similar-sized eruptions. There wasn't much of a climate effect after Mount Saint Helens, but after El Chichon, there was a big global cooling event for a couple years." "We didn't understand why, so people started looking into that and it turned out that the El Chichon eruption included much more sulfur than Mount Saint Helens," said Glaze. The eruptions of El Chichon and Pinatubo were powerful enough to propel their gases into the stratosphere, which gave them the potential to alter short-term climate. "Since the stratosphere is stable, if gas in volcanic plumes gets into the stratosphere, it stays there for a long time - a couple years," said Glaze. "Although there are many complications, the bottom line is that when these gases produce aerosols in the stratosphere, they scatter some of the sun's radiation, which warms the stratosphere and causes a net cooling at the surface. The gas in these volcanic plumes (primarily sulfur dioxide, SO2, and hydrogen sulfide, H2S), which doesn't come out in large amounts, reacts to form a layer of sulfuric acid, H2SO4, in the stratosphere. This layer scatters some of the sun's infrared radiation." Another type of volcano called a "flood-basalt eruption" doesn't explode as dramatically, but dwarfs these examples with much bigger volumes of gas and lava erupted. "With eruptions like Pinatubo, you get one shot of sulfur dioxide and other gases into the stratosphere, but then the volcano is quiet for hundreds or thousands of years," said Glaze. "With a flood-basalt eruption, you're repeatedly ejecting these chemicals into the atmosphere over tens, hundreds, or maybe even thousands of years. Each eruption itself may not be the biggest thing you've ever seen, but you're continuously supplying gas to the atmosphere over a long period time." There haven't been any flood-basalt volcanic eruptions in human history, which is probably a good thing. "It's almost unfathomable how big these lava flows are," said Glaze. "A large part of the western part of the state of Washington is covered in 1.5 kilometers-thick (thousands of yards) lava from the Columbia River flood-basalt eruptions." One eruption of the Columbia River basalt formation, the Roza eruption, is the focus of Glaze and her team's analysis. It happened about 14.7 million years ago and produced about 1,300 cubic kilometers (over 300 cubic miles) of lava over an estimated period of ten to fifteen years. Although flood-basalt eruptions were enormous, they were not as explosive as eruptions like Pinatubo. The molten rock (magma) in flood-basalt eruptions flowed easily. This allowed gas that was trapped in it to be released easily as well. This magma produces "fire-fountain" eruptions - a fountain of lava rising hundreds of meters (hundreds of yards) into the air. Often these eruptions begin along a crack in the Earth, called a fissure, up to several kilometers (a few miles) long, producing a dramatic glowing curtain of lava. Fire-fountain eruptions are seen on a smaller scale today in places like Hawaii and Mount Etna in Sicily, Italy.The magma that powers Pinatubo-type eruptions is thicker, and flows more slowly. Gas dissolved in this thick magma can't escape as easily, so when pressure is suddenly released at the beginning of these eruptions, it's like popping the cork on a bottle of champagne - all the gas rushes out at once, producing an explosive eruption. Since "fire-fountain" eruptions aren't as explosive, scientists wonder whether the gases from them are propelled high enough to reach the stratosphere, allowing the very large fire-fountain eruptions that produced the flood basalts to potentially alter the climate. The answer depends not only on how vigorous the eruption is - taller fire fountains produce higher gas plumes - but also on where the stratosphere begins. The boundary between the unstable lower atmosphere (troposphere) and the stable stratosphere is called the tropopause. Because warmer air expands more and rises higher than cooler air, the tropopause is highest over the equator and gradually becomes lower until it reaches its minimum height over the poles. Thus a fire-fountain plume from a volcano at high latitudes near the polar-regions has a better chance of reaching the stratosphere than one from a volcano near the equator. The height of the boundary has also changed over time, as the contents of the atmosphere have changed. For example, carbon dioxide gas traps heat from the sun, so when there was more carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, temperatures were warmer and the tropopause was higher. The question of whether large fire-fountain eruptions can change climate was raised by a similar but much smaller-scale fire-fountain eruption in Iceland, according to Glaze. "The Laki eruption in 1783 to 1784 injected sulfur dioxide into the upper troposphere and lower stratosphere through repeated eruptions over a period of eight months, affecting climate in the northern hemisphere during 1783 and possibly through 1784," said Glaze. Ben Franklin, living in France at the time, noticed the haze and severe winter and speculated on whether Icelandic volcanoes could have changed the weather, according to Glaze. To answer this question, Glaze and her team applied a computer model they developed to calculate how high volcanic plumes rise. "This is the first time a model like this has been used to calculate whether the plume of ash and gas above a large fire-fountain volcano like the Roza eruption could reach the stratosphere at the time and location of the event," said Glaze. Her team estimated the tropopause height given the eruption's latitude (about 45 degrees North) and the contents of the atmosphere at the time of the eruption and found that the eruption could have reached the stratosphere. Glaze is lead author of a paper on this research published August 6 in the journal Earth and Planetary Science Letters. "Assuming five-kilometer-long (3.1 mile-long) active fissure segments, the approximately 180 kilometers (about 112 miles) of known Roza fissure length could have supported about 36 explosive events or phases over a period of maybe ten to fifteen years, each with a duration of three to four days," said Glaze. "Each segment could inject as much as 62 million metric tons per day of sulfur dioxide into the stratosphere while actively fountaining, the equivalent of about three Pinatubo eruptions per day." The team verified their model by applying it to the 1986 Izu-Oshima eruption, a well-documented eruption in Japan that produced spectacular fire fountains 1.6 kilometers (almost a mile) high. "This eruption produced observed maximum plume heights of 12 to 16 km (7.4 to 9.9 miles) above sea level," said Glaze. When the team input fountain height, temperature, fissure width, and other characteristics similar to the Izu-Oshima eruption into their model, it predicted maximum plume heights of 13.1 to 17.4 km (8.1 to 10.8 miles), encompassing most of the observed values. "Assuming the much larger Roza eruption could sustain fire-fountain heights similar to Izu-Oshima, our model shows that Roza could have sustained buoyant ash and gas plumes that extended into the stratosphere at about 45 degrees north," said Glaze. Although the team's research suggests the Roza eruption had the potential to alter climate, scientists still have to search for evidence of a climate change around the time of the eruption, perhaps an extinction event in the fossil record, or indications of changes in atmospheric chemistry or sea levels, according to Glaze. "For my personal research, I would like to take these results and look at some of the really large ancient fissure eruptions on Venus and Mars," said Glaze. "There are other gases in volcanic plumes like water vapor and carbon dioxide. These gases don't have significant effect on Earth because there is so much in the atmosphere already. However, on Venus and Mars, the effect of water vapor becomes very important because there is so little of it in their atmospheres. Venus is one of my favorite places to study and I want to ask if there was active volcanism on Venus today, what should we be looking for?" The surface of Venus is hidden under a thick cloud layer, so a volcanic plume might not be visible from space, but there is the possibility that an active volcano could produce noticeable changes in atmospheric chemistry. The research was funded by NASA's Planetary Geology and Geophysics program, managed by NASA Headquarters, Washington.

Everything we do to reduce emissions and reduce the warming, is worthwhile. It will make a huge difference for our grandkids.
I wish that even one of these climate reports included the amount of carbon taxes being collected by world governments and how they are mitigating the climate crisis. In CA they pay over $5 BILLION annually, just from the carbon tax on a gallon of gas. A lot of money from just one tax in one state. And it does absolutely nothing to affect climate.
