Simultaneous heat waves scorched land areas all over the Northern Hemisphere last summer, killing hundreds and hospitalizing thousands while intensifying destructive and deadly wildfires.
A study published this week in the journal Earth’s Future concludes that this heat wave epidemic “would not have occurred without human-induced climate change.”
The alarming part? There are signs record-setting heat waves are beginning anew this summer — signaling, perhaps, that these exceptional and widespread heat spells are now the norm.
In the past few days, blistering, abnormal heat has afflicted several parts of the Northern Hemisphere, including major population centers.
New Delhi, India’s capital, soared to 118.4 degrees (48 Celsius) Monday, its highest temperature ever recorded in June. Some parts of India have seen the mercury eclipse 122 degrees (50 Celsius) in recent days, not far off the country’s all-time high.

Dear Jason:
We understand that rather than working as a real meteorologist you chose to spend 10 years as a propagandist at the EPA with a job description to write this sort of crap. You are in the real world now. This stupid hand-wringing is laughable.
No matter what hysteria you play out in the newspaper, over half the country snickers at your drama queen garment ripping.
What is truly astonishing is that the predictions of temperature change are for the next 80-100 years. Which means today you’re not going to be able to perceive sub degree changes year over year.
That we have people that are saying “climate change is true, you can see it!” are just delusional.
There’s also zero evidence of “more severe weather events” throughout the scientific world.
A trace gas, 0.04% of the atmosphere, required by all plant life to thrive, is going to destroy the earth if it gets a little higher??? It’s laughable...and yes, maybe it would be better if the world had a little more and was warmer - nobody ever says what the perfect environment is. It’s ALWAYS doom & gloom, which exposes that fact that it purely political. When I see liberals stop buying ocean from property and see their prices falling I must think otherwise...
More accurate and timely reporting seems to be equated to actual warming activity.
With enough money we can put the earth into a orbit further from the sun. We need all the fossil fuels for the rocket engines necessary to do the job. Believe us, humans can do anything to control nature with your dollars.

Anyone remember the series of polar vortices last winter with weeks of Arctic like temperatures?
Planet is entering ‘new climate regime’ with‘extraordinary’ heat waves intensified by global shift as northern hemisphere enters summer season.
It’s 6/15. Temps here this week only broke 60 3 days. My heat is on. The trees here just this week cane to full leaf. We had a little less than 3 days of so so decent weather this week. That is the longest stretch of “good weather” since April fools day. When the sun does show for any length of time the humidity goes through the roof as evaporation and transpiration take over.
I’ve been waiting since September of 2018 for a good stretch of weather to tackle a building project. Finally last Friday we had what looked like 3 good days to work. We opened up the roof and the weather went right to s#!t. Now I’m mopping and bailing. F global warming.
If we want a simple method to reduce CO2 levels, plant more trees. I have heard that the clearing of the rain forest has done the most to allow the CO2 levels to increase.
Plants more trees that sequester the most CO2: horse-chestnut, black walnut, American sweetgum, ponderosa pine, red pine, white pine, London plane, Hispaniolan pine, Douglas fir, scarlet oak, red oak, Virginia live oak, and bald cypress. This is an action that even idiots can understand.
The article is wrong (or LIES). I just looked it up.
The highest June temperature in New Delhi, India was 122 degrees, in 1992.
see for yourselves, right-hand side of search:
Shut off all power to CA and we won’t have so many wildfires.
Or maybe they just need better forestry management.
We have been in a glacial cycle ever since the continent split apart enough to cause them. This was due to a decrease in ocean mixing. The only way out of a glacial in this configuration is artificial (god or aliens) or a major solar outburst. Thermodynamics rules.
Best to assume everything from the deep state is a lie.
I’ll see your New Delhi and raise you an England Midland.
What summer. It seems like very early spring where I live.
There was no difference then any other summer except the liberals continue to block cutting back brush and trees where people lived and removing road lanes which restricted the ability of people to get away from the brush fires the liberals created.
