World’s seas hit hottest July on record, scientists say
The ocean has absorbed more than 90% of the heat from global warming. Is anyone surprised that ocean temperatures are higher than ever recorded?
And is anyone seriously expecting others to believe warming stops the moment emissions reaches net zero? All the oceans contain so much heat the moment emissions stop they will keep heating the atmosphere and surface temperatures will keep warming for at least a decade.
At least shareholders & oil companies are making money off of fossil fuels.
And the French government says it's OK to build more Nuclear Power Stations on the coast because they can pump their heated cooling water directly into the ocean. (And he wants lots of DATA Centres Built in a land short of water!) Macron does NOT want to Make the Earth Great Again !

My friend obsessed with wild swimming here in the UK has stopped using our closest beach due to the rise in jellyfish numbers due to the warm waters. I stood in the Atlantic in Ireland recently. Felt like a warm bath.
Gare à la restitution de la chaleur 🌧 dans les semaines et mois à venir...
We have no hope for the future
World’s seas have hit hottest temperature on record for July, say scientists
Meanwhile, BIG OIL is raking in record profits — while the world burns. Literally.
You pump the sea full of energy - eventually that energy is going to come back out in the form of storms and winds and fires and drought. They say if you mess with the bull, you get the horns. But when you mess with Mother Nature, you'll wish you only messed with a bull.
Global warning - This is global warming. Why are we doing almost nothing about it? Denial is self sabotage.
It’s important to stop damaging the planet.🌎
The first two summer months of 2026 were 2.79C hotter than usual, the Copernicus said on Monday, beating the previous record set four years ago and reflecting the “exceptional persistence of heat” since the season began. (Guardian)
Víctor Resco de Dios, a professor of forestry engineering at the University of Lleida: “…we must be clear about one thing: what seems extreme to us today will be remarkably benign in a few decades if we continue to fail to take the necessary adaptive measures.”
"Samantha Burgess, a climate scientist at the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts, said this summer had been 'a clear example' of climate breakdown intensifying extremes that reinforce each other."
