I'm curious about the scientific consensus continually undershooting. At a certain point, if you're always updating in one direction, shouldn't you overcorrect a bit?

the scientists made their models taking human behavior into account, but they've mistakenly modeled hunan behavior off of rational, informed individuals

Living in a boring country weather-wise, I am not looking forward to ecological, political etc effects of climate change...but it was our best May on record.

As stupid as this sounds I think we (and really the media, but we know which side they’re on) should be doing this in F for US audiences. Saying “hey, it’s now 5°F hotter than it was in the 1970s” is more immediately meaningful — and the bigger number looks scarier too.

To the people who need reaching about this, any number will be scary and confusing…

Governments and companies are probably going to spend a lot of money on weather manipulation.
