hotter than the sahara normally, or hotter than the sahara right now?
the media focus is on europe, but other regions of the world are experiencing heat waves too and north africa seems to be particularly affected as well, which i see almost no one talk about…
The entire world. https://www.ndtv.com/india-news/india-heatwave-news-el-nino-heat-wave-11521133 and that was May.
I don’t thing France is normally hotter than Sahara.
i meant it in the sense of “is france right now hotter than what the sahara typically is, or hotter than the sahara is at this moment?”
my point being that the sahara is also going through a heat wave
sorry for the confusion there 😅
A city hotter than parts of the Sahara becomes a headline for a day, then disappears under sport, politics and celebrity gossip.
It really feels like this so much! There were quite some sad climate news this year already, but except the heatwave in Europe, they all got buried by Hormuz strait news, like:
- collapse of AMOC now likely
- collapse of Thwaites now likely
accelerationrate of warming almost doubled in the past decade to about 0.3 °C/decade

Make sure you don’t care about anything long enough to cause a real change!

…the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) is losing strength.
This is probably affecting this European summer more than anticipated.
Our winter this year in Southern California was the hottest in recorded history.
And the coldest winter going forward.
