'More Li0kely Than Not' World Will Soon See 1.5 Deg C of Warming: WMO
AsiaOne ^

Posted on 05/22/2023 2:49:16 PM PDT by nickcarraway

For the first time ever, global temperatures are now more likely than not to breach 1.5 deg C of warming within the next five years, the World Meteorological Organisation (WMO) said on Wednesday (May 17).

This does not mean the world would cross the long-term warming threshold of 1.5 deg C above pre-industrial levels set out in the 2015 Paris Agreement.

But a year of warming at 1.5 deg C could offer a glimpse of what crossing that longer term threshold, based on the 30-year global average, would be like. With a 66 per cent chance of temporarily reaching 1.5 deg C by 2027, "it's the first time in history that it's more likely than not that we will exceed 1.5 deg C," said Adam Scaife, head of long-range prediction at Britain's Met Office Hadley Centre, who worked on the WMO's latest Global Annual to Decadal Climate Update.

If Southern California is any gauge, they’ve got a real
surprise coming.

Temperatures here have been cool all year so far, and about
80% - 90% of the days have been cloudy or hazy, not smoggy,
although that does enter in a little in some circumstances.
It’s just colder weather than the normal averages.

It happened about three years ago also. It was five to
fifteen degrees cooler for the first half of that year.

The WHO can’t hide it’s desire to find another fake cause
to manipulate people with.

I read that as “World War III will see 1.5 Deg C of Warming”

Well, yeah.

Sorry, I meant to change that WHO to WMO and get sidetracked
before posting.

What’s the +/- on this 1.5 deg C claim? In other words, what’s the estimated uncertainty? Such a value should be part of any scientific measurement. And it can be calculated. But we never see it when it comes to climate change.

Perhaps the estimate of uncertainty is on the order of the measurement itself. That would make the measurement worthless, of no value.

Not that anyone cares. Full speed ahead on spending billions of dollars to solve this unproven problem.

Yeah but that's caused by global warming.

This is a guess. Even if true it is an arbitrary stick in the ground. It means nothing. The world has been covered with ice to the equator. And the world had palm trees growing in Hudson Bay Canada. We are very lucky to live in the time we do. Our grandchildren will be even luckier.

But we are in an interglacial warming period in an ice age period.

Thanks.

I believe it was the Holocene Period when they had to cut
factory and vehicle emissions to get things under control.

Excellent! Past the tipping point means there is no recourse, so kick back and enjoy the ride!

Warmer is better than colder.
