It’s Been 27 Years
December 20, 2012
Succinct video from Climate Nexus asks the question.
“It’s been 27 years since we had a month that was at or below the average temperature of the 20th century. Does that mean anything?”
November 2012 also marks the 36thconsecutive November and 333rd consecutive month with global temperature higher than the long-term average. The last month with a below average temperature was February 1985, nearly 28 years ago.

This is an example of a post that I just can’t feel right about giving a good rating.
It’s not that there’s anything wrong with it but it’s depressing.
“Liking” this would feel the same as “liking” a Facebook post that said “Click Like if you think we’re all a bunch of dumbasses”
