The UK has entered its third heatwave this year with temperatures expected to climb as high as 35°C in some areas later this week. The Met Office said that South East England has now officially met the heatwave criteria, after three days of temperatures above 28. Temperatures are set to continue to rise across the UK throughout the week, and more regions are likely to reach their local heatwave thresholds.

1988 ABC News report predicts a global temperature rise of up to 9° by 2028 or earlier due to "man-made carbon dioxide". 😳 "Scientists predict a rise in temperatures that will eventually melt the polar ice caps, causing the oceans to rise." "This effect began with the Industrial Revolution, when the burning of coal, gas and oil created man-made carbon dioxide." "The average global temperatures could rise from four to nine degrees in just 40 to 60 years, maybe earlier, if pollution accelerates." "The hard part is convincing all the countries of the world to make sacrifices for what must be global solutions." "We can no longer act primarily as citizens of any single nation-state."

The world’s oceans are under heat stress, with average sea surface temperatures hitting 21°C, surpassing the record highs of 2023 and 2024. They’re expected to rise further as El Nino, a natural climate pattern that warms the tropical Pacific for months, develops.

Climate change maniacs are now suggesting that existing commercial aircraft, such as the Boeing 777, could be adapted to help cool the Earth by releasing reflective particles into the atmosphere. Computer simulations indicate that releasing about 12 million tons of sulfur dioxide each year could lower global temperatures by roughly 1°F (0.6°C).
