That’s ok, Reform say carbon dioxide is fine and we should have 3 times more in the atmosphere. So I’m sure they are right.
> The UK is now 20 times more likely to see a 40°C summer
Fire up the barbecue, it’s going to be a good one.
I’ve seen enough, tax the little people more. This is a climate crisis /s
The Met Office will say whatever gets them more funding, they’re not a trustworthy organization.
It’s my fault, I forgot to put the recycling bin out.
This is not normal heat! The humidity is absolutely awful here in Islington, North London! Feels like someone can manipulate the weather easily these days
I remember summer 2022 when it got to 40°C.
Fuck that.
We just don’t have the infrastructure for that kind of heat.
So 20 times more likely than 1960 where the chance was less than 0.5%. So that means there is less than 10% chance of seeing 40°c
Gawd this is scary. I staunchly remember that summer of 40c it was wild, I’d never experienced anything here like it – was so bizarre.
I’d take just a normal summer thanks, lucky if the weather gets above 23
Be on the lookout for dreadful lizard people basking in the sun with a smirk on their faces…
I think we should all panic just for this to happen for two days every 8 years
I reckon it has something to do with immigrants. They probably brought the sun over when they came to take our jobs /s
How many threads are we going to have about this today? Any other topic and they’d be removed as duplicates.
There is no Planet B. We should be greatly accelerating reforestation programmes in this country, cleaning up our rivers, lakes and seas, restoring other threatened habitats like wildflower meadows and temperate rainforests, etc.
We should also stop mowing grass relentlessly. Insects live there.
20 times more likely than what though? What’s the current chance of a 40 degree summer?
Shitty headline blasting relative risk instead of absolute risk.
It doesn’t take away from the fact warming temperatures are an issue we will need to address; however, there is a reason why serious code of conducts frown upon use of relative risk as a communication tool with the general public. It is fear inducing and it preys on poor scientific literacy in the hopes of making a more shocking headline.
Shame of them, as we’ve all seen the damaging consequences of climate fear mongering to progressing the climate agenda and discussion in a constructive way.
well finally some sun on this depressing island. The more the better
