CURRENT TEMPERATURE SIMILAR TO WHAT WAS RECORDED IN 1926
NASA recorded it’s highest global temperature in 1990 at 15.45 C (59.81 F) after both CRU East Anglia and British Meteorology Office had posted similar world average temperatures at 59.62 F (15.34 C) two years earlier in 1988. All three authorities recorded a temperature of 59.20 F (15.11 C) in 1926, 99 years ago.
The US Goddard group found that the record average surface temperature for the globe was eight-tenths of a degree Fahrenheit above the 1951-1980 average of 59 degrees. The British group found it to be seventh-tenths of a degree higher than the 1951-80 average.Goddard Institute for Space Studies.
Scientists from the British Meteorological Office and the University of East Anglia’s Climatic Research Unit said that last year’s temperature results in 1988 continued a pattern of record high temperatures throughout the 1980’s that was reported last year. Dr. Phil Jones, a climatologist at East Anglia, said global temperatures rose on average about one degree Fahrenheit since the beginning of the century….. six warmest in order, 1988, 1987, 1983, 1981, 1980 and 1986
The British readings showed that the average global temperature in 1988 was 0.612 degrees Fahrenheit higher than the long-term average for the period 1950 through 1979, which is a base for comparing global temperatures. The average worldwide temperature for that 30-year period was 59 degrees Fahrenheit, the British researchers said. The 1988 average temperature was 0.018 degrees Fahrenheit higher than the average for 1987, the previous high year.

2023_ The warmest year on record globally – Met Office
2024 at 15.23 C was expected to be the warmest year on record, now almost certain to exceed 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels (13.73 C) for the first time. This follows on from the record-breaking 1.45°C in 2023, the previous warmest.
Even the 2024 “record breaking” temperature of 15.23 C is still well short of the 15.45 C recorded in 1990.

Nothing happened when the temperatures exceeded the 1.50 C above the pre-industrial temperature during the 1980’s and 1990’s so why should we worry now?
The temperature measuring techniques we had in the 80’s and 90’s, showing warmer temperatures, were crude by comparison with that of today and have been adjusted accordingly…there was no subterfuge.
There was no way of measuring temperatures in the southern hemisphere until the 1960’s when thermometers were placed in ship’s engine intakes but they were limited to ship routes. More accurate data became available when satellites were first employed in the 1970’s.
A lot of people are surprised this data has survived because it contradicts the most recent records. The truth is they could not remove it so all three ignored it and joined the Zero emissions con.
Based on this data from three of the most respected sources, which is all we have, there has been no significant warming of the globe. But it hasn’t stopped a number of the unemployed elite trying to undermine them.
NASA pegged the 2022 annual temperature at 14.89 C, then recorded 15.23 C for 2024, a warming of 0.34 C in just two years, which seems like they were in a hurry to get to the dreaded 1.50 C above the pre-industrial temperature of 13.73 C in order to impose further restrictions on coal and gas.
The earth-atmosphere energy balance is achieved as the energy received from the Sun balances the energy lost by the Earth back into space. In this way, the Earth maintains a stable average temperature and therefore a stable climate. Using 100 units of energy from the sun as a baseline the energy balance is as follows: The average surface temperature of the moon, which has no atmosphere, is 0°F (-18°C). By contrast, the average surface temperature of the Earth is 59°F (15°C). This heating effect is called the greenhouse effect.
