    I understand the joke but let’s be honest an admit we do not know.

    Hottest summer in my life was in 2007, being so hot and humid it felt like breathing inside a sauna.

    I can objectively see weather patterns changing, which implies the underlying climate is changing as a whole, but objectively speaking, up until now, 2024 has been a proper year, with real seasons, rain, cold and snow where it belongs.

    So, I call this on the over estimate.

          Nice one. You managed to use a non sequitur, a personal note, attached to a sentence where a concrete statement is made, to undermine my comment.

          Isn’t that what is called a red herring?

            Your “concrete statement” was false. 2024 is not a “proper year” - it is in fact on track to be the hottest ever. Again.

            I no longer have the patience to debate blatant climate falsehoods seriously. If you want respectful responses to your comments, respect your audience and don’t make objectively false claims.

              I wasn’t aware we are at a show. Audience? Where?

              But let’s end this exchange while we’re on a good note and let’s agree none of us denies climate change, which I haven’t.

        And somehow I doubt we share the same understanding of the expression being used and have the same view over the use of sarcasm when conducting polite conversation.

        Sadly for me, my app doesn’t parse me through cross linked comments. But I appreciate the effort.
