July 2023 is now officially the hottest month in human history, and August will probably be even hotter. I wish I were making this up.
If I remember correctly, last century, the junior high school English curriculum was pretty big on describing conflict in literature, such as Romeo and Juliet, The Day of the Triffids and other famous works I always meant to read before the book report was due.
Last month, we smashed all temperature records — the previous average global temperature record of 16.92 C from 2016 was surpassed on July 3, with 17.01 C. The next day was hotter still at 17.18 C, and July 5 climbed up to 17.23 C. The trendline continued: Climate scientists believe the main reason for the heat problems we are experiencing is that it is very hot outside. It is hot because we are still pumping greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. Look it up, it’s all old science, stuff that we’ve known about for many decades but … well, you know. We’re pretty used to the ease and efficiency of our gas/coal/dinosaur-lard-powered lives.
Not everybody thinks we have a problem.
