Just for the sake of clarity, there is a difference between jumping above 2C during a year and the long-term average being above 2C, which is what we’re usually talking about when it comes to global warming. This headline, and the 1.5C headlines from 2023, tend to muddy the waters. Shit is bad and getting worse, but it’s not quite as bad as you might think at first glance.
Living in a boring country weather-wise, I am not looking forward to ecological, political etc effects of climate change…but it was our best May on record.
We’re gonna reach 6 degrees, aren’t we?

Thank you for the clarification.
At this rate that is just the start.
Instead of Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon, it’ll be 6 degrees and we’re all bakin’
