@LeonSimons8 This is the only thing that scares me and it scares me a lot.
We have three children below 30 and this heating will damage their chances of a normal life.
They won’t be able to have children because their life would be so miserable that it’s not acceptable to eve

🚨The most important graph in the world has another 6 months of data!🚨
NASA CERES satellites measure how much sunlight Earth absorbs and how much heat is radiated back to space.
The difference is heat accumulation, which has more than tripled over the past 26 years! https://t.co

If I live long enough, I could see all these tipping points being triggered.
What world are we bringing our kids and future generations into?... https://t.co/rKXWLkbcAQ

During our Climate Chat, someone asked when we reach +3.0°C with current warming rates.
Here I extrapolated the warming rate from 'Global Warming has Accelerated Significantly' by Grant Foster and Stefan @Rahmstorf (2025 preprint) to up to +4°C (extending their table 1): https:/

🌍🌡📈
We could cross 2°C of global warming next decade!
We will discuss why later today on Climate Chat.

As global temperatures increased, the amount of Outgoing Longwave Radiation (OLR) increased.
But not as much as the Absorbed Solar Radiation (ASR) increased, leading to an increased rate of global heat uptake: Earth's Energy Imblance. https://t.co/TExnUqhW3a

"EEI provides the direct driving force for global warming and all of the consequences thereof.
It is this increased EEI that leads us to project a 50-100% increase in the rate of global warming during the few decades following 2010."

The Earth's Energy Imbalance (EEI) is the speed at which heat is accumulating heat in the Earth system, mainly the oceans.
This heat gain is calculated in Watts per square meter (W/m²) over the 510 trillion square meters of the Earth surface.
It kept increasing in recent years:

The most important graph in the world.
Two years ago NASA showed the world that the rate of global heat uptake had doubled since 2005.
It barely made the news.
