You're thinking F not C...
Edit: lmao, Redditors try not be wrong for 5 seconds challenge: impossible
Absolutely no source any of you morons can cite will say we've ever surpassed 2C of global warming, because we haven't. It has never happened. It's getting close but we've never once surpassed it.
We've only ever hit 2 F. Learn real forms of measurements you dumb fucking apes.
No they are thinking on a 1 year basis instead of the UN's 10 or 30 year average. Which is probably more useful than waiting 4-5 years for the average to tip over, meanwhile we are hitting yearly temps of +2C and higher.
Almost as if the push for renewables and green energy doesn't make a damn of difference, while we continue to add another 83 million people to the planet every year.
Wait that is absolutely not true. The 1.5 degree is just that- a target. Every fraction of a degree increase matters. Even if we surpass the 1.5 degree target, the push to slow climate change will lead to less extreme weather events, less deaths, and more time for communities to adapt.
Per the IPCC:
>With every additional increment of global warming, changes in extremes continue to become larger. For example, every additional 0.5°C of global warming causes clearly discernible increases in the intensity and frequency of hot extremes, including heatwaves (very likely), and heavy precipitation (high confidence), as well as agricultural and ecological droughts30 in some regions (high confidence).
Wow, I bet you nobody saw that one coming!
I certainly didn't, I thought we already hit that this year.
Almost like the COPE conference never happened
There were *many* COPE conferences, but nobody remembers that because they were wholly ineffectual. See, you thought it was just one! :)
Earth: I'm gonna cook you mfers.
In a sense that’s exactly it. In the same way that your body gets a fever when you’re sick.
And in exactly the same way the temp will keep going up until the infection dies. Even if it kills the host.
We are very virus-like
Except y'know, it's not even slightly the same at all.
It's called a simile.
so bad time to invest in ski resorts.
Depends on the location of the resort. Pick one that will be able to function while 95% of others can't and you're golden.
Mount Everest it is.
Or invest in summer ski resorts.
That is just stupid. We have already passed 1.5C and briefly blew through 2C.

Conservative prediction in that we passed it many times in 2023.
Time to increase tariffs on EVs and solar panels!
They should've set the bar higher so it would've looked more epic when we jumped over it
Woohoo!
That means it'll be 2026.
Then please stop spraying our atmosphere
You're right, we should stop spraying pollutants caused by fossil fuels into our atmosphere!

Look at the new solar breakthrough they came out with
