  1. According to our trusty scientific community we wait a few years for consensus. And then another few years for policy translation. Oh wait, the sky is falling on us. Too late.

  2. This is the point in disaster movies when the scientists say “mother of god”.

  3. average person- turns on command start and preheats their SUV engine for 20 minutes while they take a dump, brush their teeth and pours their coffee into their coffee mug.

  4. It’s kinda strange that such a catastrophe is currently playing out in real time on a global scale and there appears to be no real proportional consequence or pain.

    Sure Acapulco happened, crabs starved, then whales starved, penguins fell through the ice and died, buncha other stuff happened but we’re all kinda just still fillin out TPS reports…. What’s the deal?

    It’s really bizarre…

  5. This will be quite disastrous for sea life. I hope this changes some things.

  6. Not a scientist but I would think next year it will also be high but not quite as high. People will see a temperature drop and say everything is great and we have nothing to worry about.

  7. With the El Niño kicking in, I’m expecting the next 12 months to be even worse.

  8. North Atlantic Thermohaline collapse … goodbye Thwaights glacier.. this Antarctic summer is going to be ugly. Mass migrations begin in earnest this decade. I fear for my children’s future

  9. Can someone explain why we compare to the 1982-2011 mean rather than 1982-present?

  10. Not that this doesn’t seem bad, I just think a tweet with a screenshot isn’t a real source of news.

  11. It’s understood that this was caused by the recent changes in ship fuel regulations which have led to less sulfate aerosols which were keeping the north Atlantic cooler. The aerosols were masking the effects of climate change and now we’re removing that mask and seeing the real impact.

    This effect was also observed in some urban areas in China recently.

  12. Does anyone know if it’s predicted to continue to rise, level out or go back down?

  13. Does the term “Oceanic Collapse” mean anything …?

  14. An interesting aside to this: I thought I recalled an article recently in which the Biden administration was warming to the idea of various options for enacting a shield to reduce the amount of short wave radiation reaching the earth. I faintly remember something coming out of NASA or another dept but little else other than a headline in my feeds here on reddit.

    Pls note I am not passing any sort of judgement on viability although I recall scientists have suggested some option in the past that are or may be within our capability.
