We're breaking temperature records left, right and centre. Really crazy to read one area in China recorded it's lowest ever records temp in Jan of - 53C considering it's +52C now

I wanna die going from +40C to -40C, I don't wanna imagine a wider gap..

It's unimaginable, we don't get such severe winter weather here but did break +40 last year.

The big problem is that we're not even seeing the impact of current carbon emissions, they will have an impact for many years to come.
