> And the annual variation in temperature of ~50 degrees C many places on earth does not really support it. Ummm, hello? so "most anomalously hot month ever" does not suggest a change in the underlying system?? Would you predict that handrails in Arizona now can give 3rd degree burns? https://www.cnn.com/2023/07/24/health/arizona-heat-burns-er/index.html https://www.cnn.com/2023/07/24/health/arizona-heat-burns-er/... Because I remember conversations like this when I was growing up: "Mommy, can I go to the playground?" "No, Johnny, the slide will fry your ass"

Please read what you're replying to, before pressing reply. "equilibrium so precarious that a couple degrees in mean temperature change" does not really mesh very well with having annual (and even daily) variation much larger. If you never experienced a hot slide as a kid, maybe you were just coddled? Lots of the modern so-called environmentalism is driven by people having ridiculously little first hand experience with nature or even being outdoors.
