Editor\u2019s note: This summary serves as a fact check on the biggest false claims made in the media in June, 2024. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

NASA satellite data indicates<\/a> that June 2024 was still in the warming spike of the past year although slightly cooler:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In contrast, the real-time surface station temperature record of Temperature.global reports cooling since January 2015.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We remind you that the notion of \u201caverage global temperature,\u201d however guesstimated, has no physical meaning and there are many significant problems associated with it. That said, we will address the claimed warming spike of the past year at the end. Let\u2019s move on to this month\u2019s fact checks.<\/p>\n\n\n

One last thing notable for June is the media suppression of the late-May study from one of the Nature journals reporting that 80% of the past year\u2019s warming spike was caused by cleaner air allowing more solar radiation to hit the Earth\u2019s surface. When the study was first published, it was covered by Reuters and the Telegraph (UK).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But other than a one-sentence allusion to it in the Washington Post almost one month later, the media has failed to report about it despite efforts to bring it to their attention.<\/p>\n\n\n

The dishonest media is why we do these monthly fact checks. Check out these and other great fact checks from June at:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
