This seems ominous.
New #StateofClimate update from WMO and @MetOffice: 66% chance that annual global surface temperature will temporarily exceed 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels for at least one of next 5 years 98% likelihood that at least one of next five years will be warmest on record. pic.twitter.com/30KcRT9Tht — World Meteorological Organization (@WMO) May 17, 2023

Oh well. We can always escape the heat by taking a cruise to Alaska.
Where it will be nice and balmy, although with no views of glaciers and snow capped mountains.
Maybe join Elon Musk in a colony on Mars.
One thing about Mars: we could warm it a hell of a lot before it even became livable.
The trouble with Mars is not warming, though. It’s the lack of a significant magnetic field. Humans fundamentally cannot survive there, unless we’re burrowed underground like moles.
