#UK average annual #temperature tops 10C for first time | #ClimateCrisis | The Guardian
The trend seems to be that each year is hotter than the last. Not good at all.

This morning I posted a moonset. It has largely been a #sunny #day and as #sunset approaches, I #photographed the #Sun, which led to #silhouettes in the #foreground and plenty of #LensFlare. Still cold out there with the #temperature a couple of degrees above #freezing but bone dry.

#Climate: #Europe #warming faster than rest of #world (IPCC)

Temperatures will rise around Europe at a rate exceeding global mean temperature changes, the report found. Sea levels will rise in all European areas except the #BalticSea, at a rate close to, or exceeding, the global average.

When you're standing in the frozen food aisle, it's nearly impossible to know whether that Salisbury steak has thawed and refrozen -- a process with potentially harmful consequences. So, researchers have now designed a food-grade device from edible materials, including table salt, red cabbage and beeswax, that lets you know. The proof-of-concept sensor provides a color readout when it's warmed above a specific temperature, which is tunable from -58 F to 32 F.

How a #Billionaire’s “Attack #Philanthropy” Secretly Funded #Climate +Denialism and Right-Wing Causes
source: https://www.propublica.org/article/barre-seid-heartland-institute-hillsdale-college-gmu
Last month, The Lever and ProPublica as well as The New York Times detailed how Seid secretly handed a $1.6 billion fortune to a key architect of the Supreme Court’s conservative supermajority that recently eliminated federal protections for #abortion rights.
Steven Baer, a longtime friend and former adviser to Seid, said the businessman has long been “the major patron” for the Heartland Institute, a small Chicago-area think tank which for decades has attacked #mainstream climate #science. A top executive at Seid’s former company, Tripp Lite, served as the chairman of the group. Among the recent claims on the institute’s website: “US #Temperature Readings Are Junk, Negating Climate Science” and “96% of U.S. Climate Data Is Corrupted.”

I was looking recently at "normal temperatures" in usually cool London, and U.K. generally. Thought I might visit, though last time I caught cold in the chilly, rainy (summer!) weather. Let's check. Wait a minute, something's going on here... Seems the site has melted.
And there's a 🔥burning red house over yonder... with a dose of blues. 🎸

Extreme #UK #weather: hottest day on record as #temperature passes 40C for first time. The recording of 40.2C was taken at Heathrow at 12.50pm today, and the forecaster expects temperatures to continue to rise. Met Office says UK provisionally had its warmest night. It certainly was too warm to sleep! #climate #climateChange #globalWarming

The #SI system of #units is based on very precise measurement of universal constants like the speed of light or Planck's constant and no longer on prototypes kept in #Paris, or wherever. However, for more mundane everyday use, many of the units are also linked closely to #water in the #MetricSystem. For examples, 1 #kg of liquid water at room termperature has 1 #litre of #volume. Therefore, 1 #tonne of water fits into a cube with sides of 1 #m. One #calorie is the amount of #heat or #energy required to raise the #temperature of 1 #gram (or 1 #cc or #CubicCentimetre) of water by 1 #degreeCelsius or 1 #K.
