WASHINGTON (AP) — Because of man-made global warming and a strong El Nino, Earth’s wild weather this year is bursting the annual heat record, the World Meteorological Organization announced on Wednesday.
The United Nations weather agency’s early bird report on 2015 says it is the hottest year on record, surpassing last year’s record heat. It made the proclamation without waiting for the end of the year because it has been so extraordinarily hot, forecast to stay that way and unlikely to cool down enough to not set a record.
The report comes the week before world leaders assemble in Paris to try to negotiate an agreement to fight climate change. “This is all bad news for the planet,” the agency’s secretary-general, Michel Jarraud, said in a statement.
The report is not surprising: Scientists at the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and elsewhere already were saying that 2015 likely would be the hottest. The U.N. agency, NOAA, NASA and Japan’s weather agency all say 2014 is the current record hot year with a global temperature of 14.57 degrees Celsius, 58.23 degrees F.
“I would call it certain,” NOAA’s chief climate monitor, Deke Arndt, said on Tuesday. “Something game-changing massive would have to happen for it not to be a record.” Records go back to 1880. Jarraud also said it is likely that the world has now warmed by 1 degree Celsius, or 1.8 degrees Fahrenheit, over pre-industrial times. That’s a symbolic milestone: International leaders have set a goal of keeping global warming within 2 degrees C, 3.6 F, of pre-industrial times.
“It’s a fair summary of where we are,” said Gavin Schmidt, head of NASA’s Goddard Institute for Space Studies. “2015 is going to be exceptional in many ways.” The world is warming because of heat-trapping gases that come from the burning of coal, oil and gas. On top of that, El Nino, a naturally occurring climate event that starts with warm water in the central and eastern equatorial Pacific, makes the world even warmer, scientists say.
The report is an atlas of extreme weather, from heat waves in Pakistan and India, where high temperatures broke 45 degrees Celsius, or 113 degrees F, to a record strong Hurricane Patricia in Mexico. It included heavy rains and flooding in the southern United States, Mexico, Bolivia, Malawi, Zimbabwe and Mozambique, and droughts in the western United States, central Europe, Russia and Southeast Asia.
Yeah, if your a polar bear…averaging ~25F overnight… 😮
So, Michigan exists in a bubble outside of the rest of the earth? It was so cold this yet we didn’t go to the beach. Even in August the water was colder than normal in Huron, shallowest of the lakes.
Can’t base it solely on what YOUR area is doing, and as areas heat, others will cool.
I was in Europe most of the Spring. Hottest they’d ever seen, and expected HOTTER next year.
So Cal saw the hottest summer – and most humid – and I’m 3 generations here. Not a transplant.
600 million cars?
7+ billion people?
The smoke from the wood/charcoal fires began reaching the US continent some 20 years ago.
People in major industrial cities in China have smog so bad it’s as thick as the worst ground fog.
Chemtrails with aluminum/metals to deflect heat.
Couldn’t POSSIBLY have anything to do with man, now could it?
I have a solution……stop using oil and shut down nuclear plants…the ‘men’ that are causing disasters are the same ones that control all of the major pollutants….what say we rid ourselves of them? http://www.jmccanneyscience.com/ (wing generator energy solution)
What a troll.
“…and as areas heat, others will cool.”
Slow down there fella, that process is relatively new; ongoing a mere 5 billion years.
I’ll bite.
Can’t base it solely on what YOUR area is doing, and as areas heat, others will cool.
Answer:
If some areas heat and others cool wouldn’t this create a balance? Death valley once had water, the Sahara lush green plant life. The planet evolves, commies don’t. We live in a biosphere, not separate planets, dear. It’s all connected and not in your communist UN way either.
I was in Europe most of the Spring. Hottest they’d ever seen, and expected HOTTER next year.
Answer:
The Milanchovich cycle. Living on the earth can be unpredictable, Only communists talk about hope and change and then expect everything to never change. Who expects it to be hotter? Communist UN Globalist stooges?
So Cal saw the hottest summer – and most humid – and I’m 3 generations here. Not a transplant.
Answer:
Heavy chemtrailing off the coast to cause a drought. Not a transplant but you are ignorant of your situation.
600 million cars?
Answer:
Saying nothing of the 2 Billion that were created and destroyed because they didn’t sell for top $$$$. Maybe you should be the one to give up your rights to free travel. Keep paying 50k for a truck realistically worth 3500.
7+ billion people?
Answer:
Kill yourself then.
The smoke from the wood/charcoal fires began reaching the US continent some 20 years ago.
Answer:
What would you have us do? Bomb China and burn Walmart?
People in major industrial cities in China have smog so bad it’s as thick as the worst ground fog.
Answer:
Worry about yourself first. Why aren’t you mentioning the hundreds of workers who lose their life every day to supply you with cheap chinese plastic crap from Wally World?
Chemtrails with aluminum/metals to deflect heat.
Answer:
To make people like you too stupid to see the truth.
Couldn’t POSSIBLY have anything to do with man, now could it?
Answer:
Man is a natural part of this world. Woman was created from man and is really the base mentality, you prove this out. Women are a bunch of dependents, just ask Einstein, Tesla or any great man who has accomplished anything of note. You’re not going to do anything worthwhile when your taking care of these dependent women.
You ARE correct, however, in ‘cycles’ (most all other answers were just typically stupid straw-man arguments), but PRETENDING 600m polluting cars and 7 billion people can’t POSSIBLY have ANY effect is a great trick the ostrich uses.
PS: I’m not stupid enough to belong to any ‘party’ which dictates which way I ‘must’ believe, I don’t shop at Walmart nor Target, and buy VERY little, anyway, and CERTAINLY not new cars so I can watch my useless investment drop 30% in 30 seconds.
Most of the rest of your reply was just patently stupid.
Southern Colorado high country is exactly like it’s been forever. Bitter cold.
“The report is not surprising: Scientists at the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and elsewhere already were saying that 2015 likely would be the hottest.”
Nothing that comes from ‘scientists’ surprises me anymore.
What DOES surprise me (nominally, anyway) is that the sheeple are still stupid enough to believe these NWO shills.
An interesting take on the subject.

@flek (Yogi) your smarter than the average bear. Your my new best forum m8.
Thanks.
This is one of the many causes in ‘climate change’. There are so many natural factors to consider like: undersea volcanic activity, earth’s small deviations in it’s orbit and tilt, earth-moon gravitational interaction, the energy the sun gets from the galactic core, the energetic cloud the solar system is currently entering. And the unnatural ones like: haarp experiments, chemtrails, the high altitude nuke experiments, and any other unknown experiments.
To say carbon is evil is orwellian to the last. The more carbon, the greater the plantlife, and the more plantlife, the more oxygen.
The usury/fractional reserve ponzi scheme has finally run its course and in desperation to keep the devious party going, they now want to tax the very air we breathe and use the ‘carbon credits’ to suppress other nations rising in industrial capacity all the while enriching themselves.
If this continues, this planet will be an open air prison plantation with a two tiered society: master and slave. Then will come the population reductions via emp bursts designed to sterilize men.
The rats will hide in their underground bunkers. It’ll probably be a combination of things. Population reduction has always been a goal of the psychopathic elite just to maintain control.
What a bunch of sick and twisted fools. We are here on this beautiful oasis of a planet for a mere breath. It should be a vacation paradise and instead it’s a mad-house run by insane
psychopath khazar ‘jews’ (that aren’t even semitic hebrews) who falsely claim the creator of this planet chose them to be so very special to the point they could poison the planet and treat the rest of humanity as their personal slaves.
What’s maddening is knowing this and watching the rest of humanity sleep-walking into the trap laid bare at their feet, and
trying desperately to wake them up to avoid such a miserable fate.

Global warming ‘is FAKE,’ claims top geologist
Volume of ice caps is INCREASING and the entire Atlantic Ocean is cooling
The world is not heating up, some areas are actually getting colder and the volume of polar ice caps is increasing in some places, says geologist James Kamis.
This could dispel the “myth” of man-made global warming.
Put simply, says Kamis, our atmospheric temperature has remained static for more than 18 years, the Atlantic has got colder, and it is only the Pacific Ocean where things have heated up.
“It can be boiled down to this,” says Kamis, who has been a geologist for more than 40 years. “Temperatures of the Earth’s three big fluid systems are each trending in different directions. The temperature of the Pacific Ocean is rising, the temperature of the atmosphere has remained constant, and the temperature of the Atlantic Ocean is cooling.”
“The entire Atlantic Ocean is cooling, and not just in the northern portion of the Atlantic that is adjacent to Greenland,” Kamis adds.
These temperature variances do not fit previous climate model predictions, says Kamis. “Scientists from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), and many universities are at a loss to explain recent conflicting temperature trends from Earth’s oceans and atmosphere.”

James Edward Kamis is a Geologist and AAPG member of 41 years and who has always been fascinated by the connection between Geology and Climate. Years of research and observation have convinced him that the Earth’s Heat Flow Engine, which drives the outer crustal plates, is also an important driver of the Earth’s climate.
He received a BS in Geology from Northern Illinois University in 1973 and an MS in Geology from Idaho State University in
1976.
