According to the UN, it\u2019s the climate \u2013 meaning they want to imply human intervention in it. Of course that\u2019s what they always say, whenever some factoid suitable for cherrypicking turns up. Nothing they say sheds any light on the real factors behind the latest weather.

The average temperature of the Earth might have hit record highs this week, according to an unofficial analysis,\u00a0says DW.com<\/a><\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The news comes as several regions experience intense heat waves.\u00a0[Talkshop comment \u2013 welcome to NH summer]<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Earth\u2019s average temperature again reached a record level on Thursday, according to satellite data and computer simulations processed at a US university.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Climate Reanalyzer at the University of Maine recorded a planetary average of 17.23 degrees Celsius (63 degrees Fahrenheit), beating the record 17.18 C mark reached on Tuesday and Wednesday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The news comes as the EU\u2019s climate monitoring service said Thursday that the Earth had experienced its hottest June on record last month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The EU monitor Copernicus also said preliminary data showed Tuesday was the hottest day ever recorded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What scientists say about the climate data<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) warned that the Maine analysis should be treated with caution and that it could not validate the data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the same time, however, it said it recognized \u201cthat we are in a warm period due to climate change.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It said that \u201ccombined with El Nino and hot summer conditions, we\u2019re seeing record warm surface temperatures being recorded at many locations across the globe.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although the records are unofficial, many climate scientists regard the findings as very worrying, while UN chief Antonio Guterres has said the new statistics could go to prove that climate change is \u201cout of control.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
