From JoNova <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

By Jo Nova<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s another outbreak of the Hottest-ever-Day Fever , where buses catch fire, and the worlds top journalists forget to ask anyone anything useful about the last 500 million years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sunday was the Worlds Hottest Day<\/em><\/a>\u00a0says the Guardian<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The Copernicus data might be fine and dandy but it only goes back as far as 1979<\/a>. The warm weather we are having now is just a welcome break in a cooling trend that started 7,000 years ago. It not only isn\u2019t a record that means anything, it\u2019s almost certainly a net benefit to warm blooded mammals.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The collective amnesia about the Holocene and most of the history of human civilization is complete. Apparently the world is in uncharted territory, except for thousands of rocks, stones, spears, shells, bits of wood, pollen, diatoms, fossilized plant leaves, and all the ice cores we\u2019ve ever dug up. 4,000 stone-age spears and whatnot that melted out of the Norwegian glaciers<\/a> in the last few years, must have frozen into them sometime in the last 5,000 years. And all the bones of dogs, rabbits, geese and frogs f<\/a>ound inside the Arctic circle suggest our world is too brutally cold now<\/a>. Likewise the giant oyster shell found on a building site in Taiwan<\/a> reminds us of a time the oceans were 1 to 2 meters higher<\/a> than today, and the cavemen survived just fine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The planet saw its hottest day on record<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

CNN By Angela Fritz<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sunday was the hottest day in recorded history, according to preliminary data from a climate tracking agency monitoring temperatures since the mid-1900s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s the second consecutive year average global temperatures have crashed through shocking climate records and will not be the last, as planet-warming fossil fuel pollution drives temperatures to shocking new highs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

July 21 clocked in at 17.09 degrees Celsius, or 62.76 Fahrenheit, and was the hottest day on Earth since at least 1940, according to the preliminary data from the European Union\u2019s Copernicus Climate Change Service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s 100,000 years of journalistic negligence:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite being based on data from the mid-20th century<\/strong>, the temperature records represent the warmest period the planet has seen in at least 100,000 years<\/strong><\/a>, scientists have found from many millennia of climate data extracted from ice cores and coral reefs.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Someone should send Angela Fritz (and most of the world\u2019s journalists) the graphs of the ice cores which she has clearly never seen:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

7,000 years of cooling in Greenland. This graph shows the ice-core data up until 1855. The last 150 years (1705 to 1855) are highlighted in red to show the warming as the Earth began coming out of the LIA.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Send them the Vostok Ice Cores too<\/a>. Send them Brazilian sea levels<\/a>, and tell them the the Sahara was lush green and wet,<\/a> and the water near Indonesia was 2 degrees hotter<\/a>. And 6,000 boreholes drilled <\/a>around the world agree, along with 700 Pacific Island<\/a>s that aren\u2019t shrinking. The real science deniers are the ones ignoring half a billion years of evidence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s been hotter for thousands of years during human civilization and it wasn\u2019t caused by our cars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
