Climate change will drive rise in ‘record-shattering’ heat extremes
“Record-shattering†extremes – which break weather records by large margins – will become more likely as a result of climate change, a new study finds.
The paper, published in Nature Climate Change, finds that the northern mid-latitudes are particularly vulnerable to record-shattering heat. This is exemplified by the recent heatwave over north-western US and Canada, in which many long-standing temperature records were broken by as much as 5C.
The study finds that record-shattering extreme events are likely to occur more frequently in the coming decades, but notes that they would be “nearly impossible†without climate change. It adds that the speed of warming is more important than the level of warming reached when determining the likelihood of these extremes.
Just wondering, what’s the penalty for being grossly wrong, like virtually every environmental and ‘climate change’ doom prognostication? What’s the penalty for news outlets who push this stuff without any sort of journalistic skepticism?
“I think it is an extremely important paper that couldn’t be more timelyâ€, a scientist who was not involved in the research tells Carbon Brief. She adds that, after the heatwave in the Pacific north-west, “many people have suggested our climate models are not able to simulate such eventsâ€. However, “this paper shows very nicely that they do. We just haven’t asked the question in quite this way before.â€
In other words, they wrote it to push the doom. And get more government study grant money. This is climate science.
