Undoubtedly you heard that several days in early July were the “hottest days ever” for good old Planet Earth. The source of that story was an entity called Climate Reanalyzer, affiliated with the University of Maine. It is worth noting that even the federal government’s National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), which usually supports the global warming narrative, hastened to point out that the figures cited by Climate Reanalyzer were unofficial and based on computer climate programs, not actual measurements. Hmmm… Many media outlets love to hype stories about record heat. The reasons are both commercial (alarmist headlines attract eyeballs) and ideological (promoting the Green New Deal’s agenda to radically restructure society).
