Climate change: Broken records leave Earth in ‘uncharted territory’ – BBC News
A series of climate records on temperature, ocean heat, and Antarctic sea ice have alarmed some scientists who have said their speed and timing is unprecedented.
Dangerous heatwaves in Europe could break further records, the UN has said.
It is hard to immediately link these events to climate change because weather – and oceans – are so complex.
Studies are underway, but scientists already fear some worst-case scenarios are unfolding.

Counter terrorism police are now leading the investigation into the death of former Conservative minister Ann Widdecombe, after “new information and evidence has come to light”, Counter Terrorism Policing South East (CTPSE) has said.
“The police are pursuing multiple lines of enquiry to establish the motivation for this attack. I will be updating the House further this afternoon,” Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood said.
A 28-year-old white British man from Rotherham, South Yorkshire, was originally arrested on suspicion of murder on Saturday but has now been re-arrested “on suspicion of commission, preparation or instigation of acts of terrorism”, CTPSE said.
Police said the “dynamic and complex investigation” had led to the new arrest.
On Thursday, 78-year-old Widdecombe was found dead at her home in Haytor, Devon, having sustained serious injuries.

Three members of his government, including Home Office minister Jess Phillips, have resigned, whilst scores of Labour MPs are calling for him to quit following a disastrous set of elections for the party last week.
Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood is among a number of cabinet ministers urging the prime minister to set out a departure timetable.
Sir Keir said he does not intend to quit and threw down the gauntlet to potential rivals to formally challenge him as Labour leader.
No MP has yet launched a formal bid to challenge him, which requires the backing of 81 colleagues or 20% of Labour MPs, according to party rules.

The US said it has hit “dozens” of Iranian military targets in overnight attacks, in response to Iran hitting commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz.
The military said it struck “air-defense systems, coastal radar sites, missile and drone capabilities, and small boats”, using aircraft, ships, and drones – including “one-way attack sea drones for the first time”.
“The Strait of Hormuz is a vital maritime corridor for global trade,” the US military said. “Iran does not control it”.
In response, Iran said it targeted US bases in Jordan, Bahrain, and Kuwait and also radar systems in Oman.

President Donald Trump has said the US is reinstating a naval blockade of Iranian ports and will impose a 20% charge on all cargo shipped through the Strait of Hormuz following days of escalating strikes between the two countries.
He said this would stop “Iran’s ships or customers” from entering or leaving the key oil shipping route, but “all other countries will have fair and open use of the Strait”.
Iran’s foreign minister later said whoever provides safe passage “should be compensated for this service”, but Iran would remain the strait’s “GUARDIAN” – using Trump’s word.
Tehran and Washington clashed over the strait’s control after exchanging strikes in the region overnight and on Monday.
The US said it carried out strikes against military targets in Iran, targeting air defence systems, coastal radars, and missile and drone sites. Iran said it responded by striking US military bases in Kuwait, Jordan and Bahrain, and radars in Oman.

Wildfires of ‘exceptional scale’ have taken force in Paris, as neighbouring Spain still tackles flames across the country following its own devastating fires.
Now the UK is also experiencing wildfires in England and Wales, as its third heatwave of the year is set to intensify again this week.
Here’s what we know so far about the extent of wildfires in Europe and the UK, and how heatwaves are impacting them.

There is a film with a different angle on climate change. It departs from the orthodox narrative and points the true driving force behind it. Here is a link to the trailer: https://youtu.be/8OW4qVUzIv4?si=dB5ff_WJ66m4jS4q

People Power has the potential to:
Make cheap clean power anywhere,
Reduce most unemployment anywhere,
Eliminate poverty through stored energy sales anywhere.
First what is people power?
Power out from a storm or disaster?
There's People Power, any low tech solution that would bring power to any stricken area where people are. Wind and water turn wheels to make power, but so can people. Yes it can be stored ahead of time. Yes it's portable. Yes it's inexpensive. Yes it's good for the environment. Yes it's safe.
People Power, free power in any emergency, anywhere there are people.
Next…
People Power not only could make energy in an emergency power outage, but that type of low tech could also store energy for future use. That stored energy could be kept for backup, used in that area, or transfered and sold somewhere else.
We also know that there are places in the world where many people need work. Why not combine the two. Out of work people could be hired to use their physical power to make energy. They would not need much training, and virtually any healthy adult could do it full time or part time.
Next the extra money generated, could be used to buy solar panels to augment their revenues.
What we must insure is that these workers are paid a fair, honest wage, and treated well. This can never be forced labor.
Sum up: This is clearly a win win for everyone: Healthy power, many new unskilled jobs, and the end of poverty anywhere in the world, all in a new power industry.

Ha ha, more lefty climate alarmist crap from the BBC. No wonder so many normal (ie not left wing) people have defunded the idiots.
By the law of averages, one day the BBC will actually get a prediction about the climate right. But after fifty years of getting it wrong every time, you'd think they'd have worked it out by now.

Have you followed what is happening in the world now with the climate, for example, in one day 19 volcanoes woke up. there are a lot of earthquakes happening. this is not normal. and you listened to “Emergency appeal by scientist Egon Cholakyan to humanity: the planet is on the verge of self-destruction” – this is the first appeal, and there are three of them. so the authorities are shamefully silent and after his appeal they must shout about it everywhere

Rubbish. Scientist have known since the early 1900s that the warming effect of each molecule of CO2 declines as the concentration increases.
Ethical scientist not on green gravy train tell us the CO2 greenhouse effect has been deliberately and grossly exaggerated for money, power and control. The global climate is one of the most complex, chaotic, non-linear natural systems known, which is in a constant state of flux due to many factors – CO2 plays a minor role. Making a deliberate single parameter correlation is scientific fraud.
Meanwhile there has only been approximately 1 – 1.5 C warming since the middle of the Little Ice Age – a change so modest and gradual know one in the general public would have noticed were it not for 24/7 fear-mongering propaganda. Pointing to weather events and cherry picked data going back only 150 years that ignores the Medieval and Roman warming periods is propaganda. Climate cycles are measured in 30 year cycles. A few hot, rainy or dry years in a row means nothing
CO2 is not a pollutant for the first time in history killing the planet. CO2 is 'Safe and Effective'. There is no climate emergency.

leading scientists have told?
misinformation, cherry picking, ignoring natural climate change, heatwaves in the 1930’s were extreme, urban heat island is another anomally, average temps totally messed up with up to 40% of stations not ideal, airports , cities etc. and the bbc , the station sacks anyone daring to question anything.

I call BS. Let's keep pulling oil out the sea to lower water lvls 👍 if this was real why are mortgages still given to properties on the coast? Seems only countries without oil push this. If you have no oil wealth you need to ban it to keep in global power. Why aren't we planting trees to counter? Or is that to cheap and a permanent solution that can't scam the tax payer

Human extinction from climate change is the inevitable outcome. We breached 1.5 c this year and will pass it on a few years. At current rate earth will warm 6 degrees centigrade by 2100 easily cussin enough methane to be released for extinction of humans and 90 percent of other animals. Stop relying on fake hope. This may well be the last century of human life on earth and guy McPherson says even sooner

The single most troubling indicator of global heating is the 1.2 TRILLION TONS of global melting ice, as it is our global AC and is sucking-up 2.16 X 10 to the 17th BTU'S PER DAY. How long can this go on? 77-110 yrs. Venus 2.0? The net is full of research supporting these numbers, if you just Google a bit of climate research.
