Extreme heat in winter. "We have just observed the highest temperature ever recorded in winter in Australia. Multiple weather stations have been breaking records, highest temperature came in today at +41.6°C in Western Australia (Yampi Sound). Astonishing intensity of heat for winter."

Hopefully the answer isn’t to deforest thousands of acres and put wind turbines up 🤔

It’s because of all the biofuel. It puts NOx NH3 SO2 Cl2 black carbon, soot and more in the air, this goes to the pole, where you get ozone accumulation in the dark ( without light to activate the ghg ozone that forms with lightening due to the friction of all the particulates and the NOx) so ozone accumulates in the dark winter and as soon as spring comes with its light, the air mass of mixed ghg ozone and pollutants starts self-lofting, causes storms that incorporated the ghg heat in the ocean, which ocean starts emitting gasses ( because the solubility of gasses in water depends on temperature… its a law of nature) which gasses climb further to the stratosphere at the equator where they deplete the stratospheric ozone. The Stratosphere than, cools (no heat retained by ghg anymore) and that heat/ these sunrays continue their way to the earth surface: so it warms down here. So biofuel cause global warming. Wood is made to build not to burn.

The Industrial Revolution (funded by slavery, genocide, etc.) has caused great havoc to our planet and numerous innocent tribes etc. The many nations, corporations, and religions responsible are not being held accountable. Instead, the majority of humans are gaslighted for driving vehicles and burning fossil fuels that were marketed to them by powerful entities that we all trusted. In the end, Earth is not destroyed by an invisible devil, Satan, but instead by the greed of sociopaths and psychopaths we pay to lead us! THE END

Hi Andrea. These are extreme daytime temperatures. Extremely unlikely that these will be heatwave conditions. Cumulative excess heat required for heatwaves. ( think if the diurnal temperature signal during winter - many hours to discharge cumulative daytime heat flux). Singlular temperature measures at best indicate some of the heat flux. We dilute understanding of dangerous heatwaves if we talk about winter heatwaves that are simply not there.

Wow, it's alarming to see such extreme heat in winter. This is a clear indication of the impact of climate change. It's important that we take immediate action to reduce our carbon footprint and adopt sustainable practices. We need to work together as a global community to combat climate change and protect our planet for future generations. Let's keep spreading awareness and taking action towards a more sustainable future. #climateaction #sustainability #globalcommunity

This is wildly fascinating for all the wrong reasons. Our technological leaps have been incredible, but it seems we've taken out a loan from nature that we might struggle to repay. It's our generation's duty to support innovation in clean energy and sustainable hardware and show gratitude to the earth and this life.

Love this to educate the lost sheep that claim global warming is fake

The greatest threat to our planet is people believing that someone else is going to save it! ❤️🌍 Currently travelling the globe in search of positive conservation to get involved in!

and yet here in the uk the coldest summer for 15 years…….. Its exhausting explaining climate change sometimes!

Yes we have over a week of 30c+ temperatures here in Brisbane this week with the last day of winter supposed to be 34c. Ridiculous for this time of year to be using AC for the heat..🥵
