@archer_rs Simon Schama, in A History of Britain, explained that the climate was warmer in 3,000 BC. Meanwhile, the real threat to human life on Earth is the collapsing insect population.

The level of ignorance here regarding climate change is simply astonishing.
This is an existential threat to the human species and yet there are still some saying things like,
"It's summer" and "Just a hot day" or "warmer when I was young"
Incredible!

Apparently climate change is a myth.

@DaveThroup Climate change is explained by the Milankovitch effect.

The number of hot days has tripled since the 1960s. That is the point.

So if it was this hot 82 years ago, and this is the first time it has been matched, global warming isn’t a thing.

After a day like this, only fools think burning fossil fuels for any longer than is necessary makes sense. The much derided Ed Miliband is right: his critics ultimately enemies of life on earth. news.sky.com/story/weather-…

@omgsidewalks “Settled Science” is not science, it’s dogma.
English

Honestly, I’m sick and tired of grown adults calling the climate crisis a hoax. It’s not even a debate, the science has been settled for decades. Your ignorance is not just embarrassing, it is actively destroying the planet and every living thing on it.

Your body has a hidden survival mode that kicks in when you stop eating.
And one Japanese scientist cracked the code on it.
His name is Yoshinori Ohsumi.
In 2016, he won the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for uncovering something wild: when your cells get starved, they start eating themselves.
Not in a bad way.
They hunt down broken, damaged, useless parts inside themselves and recycle them for fuel. It's called autophagy, which literally means "self-eating."
Think of it as your body's internal cleanup crew, triggered the moment food stops coming in.
Damaged proteins? Gone.
Worn-out cell parts? Recycled.
Cellular junk that builds up over time? Cleared out.
Ohsumi spent decades quietly studying yeast cells in his lab while the rest of the science world chased flashier topics. Everyone overlooked this process. He didn't.
His work now sits at the center of research into aging, cancer, Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, and type 2 diabetes.
One man. One microscope. One discovery that rewrote how we understand the human body.
Sometimes the biggest breakthroughs come from the patience nobody else has.

The UK just “smashed” its May temperature record… but here’s the part the Met Office conveniently leaves out:
The PREVIOUS record was set in 1922.
That’s 104 years ago.
Long before SUVs, private jets, or modern CO₂ emissions. Heathrow Airport didn’t even exist yet. The area was literally farmland and small villages.
So if a 1922 heatwave could produce nearly identical temperatures in a world with ~130 ppm less CO₂, maybe, just maybe, natural variability plays a much bigger role than the panic merchants admit.
Met Office@metoffice
Temperatures at Heathrow have recently reached 33.5°C, provisionally beating the all-time May record

@NotFarLeftAtAll When are the Greens going to realise that the collapsing insect population is the real emergency that threatens the food supply of both humans and animals?
