Numerous weather events of decades & centuries prior were more heated & deadly, and this was when the outdoor CO2 level was much lower than it is today.

We begin ... you & I ... with the February 2025 surface temperature anomaly report from the United States Climate Reference Network.  The USCRN comprises 114 weather stations.  So, without further ado, let's cut to the chase:

Below:  Now remember, an anomaly is the departure from the average.  In February 2025, the United States had a surface temperature that was 0.36 degrees Fahrenheit BELOW AVERAGE.  In the prior month, the anomaly was MINUS 3.08F.

As a reminder, and for your Peace of Mind, the January 2025 temperature anomaly report is posted directly below.  This is because it sounds too good to be true, and you could use a break from all of the scaremongering done by the mainstream media.  Upon looking at the Jan 2025 report, you will now know that I ain't a lying.

This brings us to a question:  Where is all of this hyper-theatrical, scary campfire story, End-of-the-World-and-we're-all-gonna-die "Global Boiling" that the UN told humanity was transpiring rapidly?  

We now adjourn to 1932 America --- 93 years ago, when CO2 was low

The Year 1816 was the Year Without a Summer ... in Eastern America and all of Europe ... due to the Mt Tambora eruption.  In 1932, the Northeast of the United States experienced a year without a winter.   All in all, there was far more of a "Global Warming Climate Crisis" back then, in the early 20th Century ... and in the mid & late 19th Century ... than there has been within any packet of time of the 21st Century.   After all, the entire American Civil War was fought during a drought that actually began four years before the war even started.

In addition, the 1300s, 1416 & 1417, 1452 & 1453, the 1500s, and the 1600s had notable weather disasters, too.  In fact, on Saint Lucy's Feast Day, in mid-December of 1287, the coastline of the Netherlands was rearranged mercilessly.  Even German coastal areas were adversely affected.  Then, in November of 1421, the North Sea had a turbulent encore with the Dutch coastline.

Incidentally, the irony of 1416 & 1417 is that one year was a year of intense flooding, while the other year was the year of drought.  There were many other disastrous years, also. 

And of course,  the tragic St. Lucy event occurred when the CO2 level was very very low;  at 282 ppm.  That's 147 ppm LOWER than today.  Thus, you would be an avowed liar to claim that the St Lucy Day Flood and/or the November 1421 flood were caused by CO2 or methane.  This is because 1] the disasters happened towards the start of Winter, 2] there wasn't enough CO2 to effect air masses due to its low level, and 3] 90% of all greenhouse gases is WATER VAPOR, anyway.   

The bottom line is that Al Gore lied when he said that a rise in CO2 was going to cause a rise in the number and intensity of natural disasters.  The behavior of Pressure Gradient Forcing is what triggers or not triggers turbulence and the ensuing natural disasters that visit Planet Earth.

The Natural Disasters were worse in decades & centuries past ... not today.

The first half of the 20th Century had far more forest fire acreage burnt, mostly spanning from 1927 to 1943.  Floods ended worlds in Asia, even in the 19th Century.  The heatwaves were epic in the early 1910s, early 1920s, and mid 1930s.   Plus, extreme glacier melt in the Swiss Alps did keep making the newspapers in the early 20th Century.

And then came sea storms.  The most deadly hurricane of the Atlantic Basin occurred in 1780.  This prompted the French Navy to sail north toward Yorktown Virginia, during the Hurricane season of 1781.  The result was that a failing new nation got a second chance to become its own sovereignty.  The French preferred to fight the expert English and their General Cornwallis than the winds of the Atlantic Tropics, during Cape Verdi Season.

In comparison to decades and centuries past, there is no Climate Crisis today, because there is no one-sided, habitual trend toward any singular type of weather, be it either:  1] heatwave-only & drought-only weather,  or  2] cold weather only.

In the 21st Century, there has been a see-saw ride where notable hot weather would eventually alternate with record cold weather.  Of course, the media would hide or make little of any cold weather event.  In fact, the early 1990s saw the cold and record snow, while 1998 saw blossoms in February.  

The past 10, 20, and 30 years were NOT a matter of heated weather only ... or a drought-only climate ... or predominate cold weather.  In the 21st Century there has thus far been Diversity in Climate, within Cyclical Intervals of Time.   

I already line-itemized the record cold events of the past two decades.  This included a 13-day time span in 2021, when over 9,000 cold/low records were either tied or broken.  This also included a number of Antarctic records, in August & September of the same year.  In fact, the Winter of 2021 was the coldest one in Antarctic history. 

*******************

Let us take a look at some of the many historic receipts, otherwise known as historic pieces of evidence, and also known as the printed record. 

This particular post will cover two decisive events, before it covers the 1925 summertime heatwave & the March 18th, 1925 Tri-State Tornado:  1} The Winter of 1932 and 2} the Great Mississippi River Flood of 1927.    The 1925 tornado remains the most deadly & destructive tornado in American history.

The point to doing this is to show ... yet again ... that historic weather disasters occurred during times of low CO2 levels.  This shows that Al Gore was completely wrong when he claimed that the rise in CO2 would cause more natural disasters such, as hurricanes, to strike with more intensity.  And of course, the opposite of the Category 6 hurricane transpired.   There turned out to be more short-duration cyclones, along with cyclones too weak to be categorized as hurricanes.  Such things are called tropical storms.

Numerous photo-copies of newspaper articles are already posted at the Blue Marble Album.  So too are charts and graphs, as well as statistical tables.  If you don't want to read the text of any post here, then at least look at the charts, tables, and graphs here.  And if you don't want to read the historic newspaper articles posted here in photo-copy form, then at least look at the headlines and sub-headlines of them, as well as the dates of each one's publication.

In 1932, the CO2 level was 308 ppm.  That's 121 ppm LOWER than it is today.  Moreover, 90% of all Greenhouse Gases ... by volume ... is WATER VAPOR and not CO2.  The fact that exceptional warming occurred in 1932, 1934, 1936, and even in 1896, 1905, 1911, 1921, etc shows that the Al Gore CO2 Climate Driver Theory is a fraud.  You can't deny this without being an avowed liar.

 Below is another newspaper article on the exceptionally mild Winter of 1932 which literally placed the Winter Olympics "on hold."

     **************************************************************************

Below:  As far back as 1932, it was reported that, for the previous 25 years (1907-1932), the United States had "increasingly warmer winters."  Therefore, all of the present mainstream media hype about "global warming" today is nothing new, at all.  Such "global warming news reporting" occurred over ninety and one hundred years ago.  In fact, natural disasters of distant decades and distant centuries were worse than the majority of events in the past dozen years.  

Between 2012 and 2025, there have been many record cold weather events, including the coldest Antarctic Winter in recorded history.  Yet, the media made it look as if only heated weather events have been occurring.  The media also made it look as if the recent natural disasters never happened before.

In as much, during the 2016 Democrat Party National Convention, Sigourney Weaver LIED to humanity, when she said, "This we have never seen before."  Oh, mankind sure as Hell has seen it before, Sigourney, and at a much worse intensity, and tragically so.  

This includes sea storms, droughts, heatwaves, forest fires, dust storms, pestilence, crop failure & famine, flooding, landslides, tornadoes, cold spells, blizzards, glacier growth, glacier melting, and let us not forget plagues ... epidemics ... pandemics ... the end of world after world on Planet Earth.  

Ending the use of natural gas stoves and gasoline automobiles will NOT end the atmospheric turbulence & natural disasters which resulted in so much suffering throughout the centuries ... especially centuries of low CO2 levels.

Of course, Sigourney was just an actress, and actresses play make-believe.  Well, in 2016, Sigourney definitely was playing make-believe in front of America.   It's now the Year 2025.  We're tired of make-believe.  We want reality, instead.

                 *********************************************************************

1927:  Year of a great flood, when outdoor CO2 was 305 ppm ... 124 ppm LESS THAN TODAY.

In the 1927 sub-headline above, Columbus refers to Columbus Kentucky.

                                                                                     

In 1927, the CO2 level was a very low 305 ppm.  That's 124 ppm LOWER THAN TODAY.

  The lesson here is to quit listening to Al Gore, Michael Mann, Jim Hansen, Attenborough and their Congressional backers such as the very dishonest SHELDON WHITEHOUSE.  Spending your life as one of their many Useful Idiots is not a very fulfilling life.

           ***********************************************************************

            Also in 1927 was the reporting of ... Glacier Melt ... all when the CO2 level was very low.

********************************************************************

 

We now adjourn to the Heatwave of 1925, so that you may gain insight on how we are not in any type of never-before-witnessed "climate crisis."  Contrary to that which Sigourney Weaver said in 2016, all of "THIS" we have seen before, and at greater degrees of intensity.

The most destructive tornado in American history occurred in 1925, when the CO2 level was low.

Humanity was constantly being told that natural disasters are getting more frequent & more intense, in the hyper-theatrical sound bytes of Joe Biden, Al Gore, and the Secretary General of the UN, as well as others.  Well, if this is true, then answer this question:

Why was the most destructive TORNADO in history one that formed 100 years ago, on March 18, 1925?  If we are presently in a Climate Crisis, then the most deadly tornado, most deadly hurricane, and most severe drought would have happened within the past ten to fifteen years.   But, these disasters transpired 91, 100, and 245 years ago, thereby proving Al Gore and Michael Mann to be liars ... or at the least ... incompetent.  In fact, as was already reported in this Blue Marble Album, the longest Southwestern America drought was found to have occurred in the late 13th Century.  You have to quit listening to Al Gore, CNN, the UN, MSNBC, etc.

One important note about tornado formation, in this era when the media keeps squawking "global warming" and similar bumper sticker slogans:  For a tornado to form there absolutely needs to be a COLD DOWNDRAFT.  This is why meteorologists mention, "Tornado Season."  Thus, global warming doesn't cause tornadoes.  Two winds which are positioned to combine with each other and construct a vortex do.  

The first tornado recorded in America occurred in 1643, in Essex County Massachusetts.  Tornadoes were also recorded in 1671, 1680, 1761, 1787, etc.  None the less, not all tornadoes that occurred before 1950 were placed in the record books.  Only significant ones were counted.  None the less, the worst Tornado Outbreak in America occurred in  April of 1974.  It produced 148 tornados and reached 13 states, along with having reached Ontario Canada.  

And of course, in response to Sigourney Weaver stating, " 'this' we have never seen before,"  when it comes to tornadoes, we have seen it before, thousands of times.  Among the worse tornado outbreaks, there also was one on Palm Sunday 1965, one in 1917, and the one in 1962, when 188 tornadoes touched-down in 25 American States.  Extreme weather events were not limited to the 21st Century only.  It has always been wrong to claim so. 

A quick review on the formation of tornadoes

Ultimately speaking, the ingredients which causes a tornado to emerge in ferocity is  CONVECTIVE AVAILABLE POTENTIAL ENERGY.  This arrives in the form of thunderstorms, after high dry air becomes a downdraft and mixes with warm air that uplifts.  

In fact, that which is needed to occur upon the thunderstorms that turn into tornadoes is 1] Wind shear,  2] Lift,  3] the Baroclinic Instability which creates the turbulence,  4] Moisture which is actual presence of liquid water, as opposed to gaseous water vapor.  BTW,  the pre-storm liquid water is always in trace amounts.

Moreover, without wind shear, the resulting low "Storm Relative Helicity" (twisting potential) will not create a mesocyclone.  But, you can get ferocious thunderstorms.  You might also get shorted-lived "airmass" thunderstorms, also.  

One more thing, during the Biden Years, certain scientists starting using the phrase, "atmospheric river."  That phrase actually began at MIT in the 1990s.  The phrase has a way of scaring novices in atmospheric science.  Yet, it refers to a narrow band of water vapor.  An atmospheric river is bordered by differing fronts called frontal zones, and it forms over ocean water.  The most famous one is the Pineapple Express.  Now, a river of vapor doesn't sound too dangerous, once you know what the true definition of atmospheric river is.

As far as goes scientists' attempt to report the weather in hyper-theatrical degrees, know that things in that sky have been the same ... between intervals of time ... for centuries.   Thus, a typical cloud today weighs as much as clouds did 3,000 years old.  

A white fluffy cloud looks quite harmless.  But, it could seem to be something terrifying by adding one simple fact in a news report.  The average, ordinary, everyday, run-of-the-mill cloud in the sky weighs approximately one million pounds.  It sounds dangerous.  But, it's the same type of cloud you have been seeing since childhood.  And when a cloud descends to the Earth's surface, it's called fog.   Fog can't hit you in the head hard enough to give you a concussion.  Fog has the strength of chiffon.   Only fear fog when driving a vehicle. 

And of course, scientists try to make the weather sound scary ... as if things are now occurring which never happened previously ... in order to trick the US Congress into shelling-out outrageously large sums of Congressional funding to these hyper-theatrical scientists.  It has all been a swindle done by grifters.

Powerful Tornado Outbreaks in quick review

.

Now, the most powerful tornado in known history formed in Smithville, Mississippi, on April 27th of 2011.  It was part of a Super Cell which included 70 tornadoes in all.   Then there was the Great Plains Tornado Outbreak of early May 1999.  That was when multiple super cell thunderstorms created 70 tornadoes which made marks on Oklahoma, Texas, and Kansas.  However, the March 1925 Tornado was the most costly one upon human life.  It was the most deadly of them all.

Below:  The Tri-State Tornado of March 18, 1925 started in Missouri, crossed through Southern Illinois, and even entered Indiana.  And keep in mind that this was when the outdoor CO2 level was low.

  

Officially speaking, the Death Toll turned out to be 695 people.  The suddenness of a tornado is its most terrifying feature.  In America, it has been common to have over one thousand ... even over 1,200 & 1,700 ... tornadoes each year.  This translates into over ten thousand tornadoes in America per decade, ever since thorough & high-tech detection & record-keeping has been established.

The Great "London-is-burning" Lie of July 19, 2022 ... conjured by the media

The following was written in 2022.  But, it is far more pertinent today, in light of the continuing hoax of the UN & Gavin Newsom ... as well as during the Biden-Harris Years ... which claim the world to be in a Climate Crisis.  There are over 60 climate-related discourses here, to prove the sky-is-falling claim to be an insult to a reasonable person's intelligence.  And they are supported with numerous pieces of evidence which, predictably enough, is known as "Evidentiary Support."  

In as much, if you don't at least look through the numerous pieces of evidence here, then you have zero right to speak on the subject.  Basing one's belief on anything ... by means of only one biomarker ... especially by one statistic that is taken out of context ... is the sign of someone easily persuaded and therefore easily duped.  

Of course, the rise in CO2 is the sole marker cited in doomsday diatribes.  Yet, the amount still is a mere trace amount in the atmosphere which is 78% Nitrogen, 21% Oxygen, 9% Argon, and a mere 0.044% CO2.  Moreover, CO2 has three alternating vibrational modes attached to it, one of which renders CO2 incapable of capturing Infrared Light.  This is why it was possible for there to have been a major ice age, while the CO2 count was 9 times higher than today.

And ironically enough, since March of 2025, the atmospheric CO2 count of Planet Earth declined by 3 parts per million.  Once again, from March 2025 to the end of November 2025, the CO2 count dropped by 3 ppm.  That was unexpected.  Very unexpected.  The assumption was that it was going to increase by 2 or 2 ppm.

Ironically enough, like a typical dictator, Al Gore refused to have videoed debates about his doomsday climate claims.  This is because he knows that he will lose the debate ... in the cross-examination.  

And of course, Attenborough was proven 100,000% wrong in him having stated that the weather of Planet Earth was stable for 1,000 years, until the invention of the combustible engine.  It was anything but that ... and lots of historic and statistical and archeological evidence exists to prove Attenborough to be nothing but a liar.  

In the last 1,000 years, there were droughts and historic storms, including one that rearranged a coastline in 1287.  There were also the resultant floods, along with glacier growth, heat waves, and more, all occurring when the CO2 level was as low as during the Roman Era.  So, in the words of Jackie Gleason (super famous TV host of the 1960s), "And away we go."

🌐🌐🌐🌐🌐🌐🌐🌐🌐🌐🌐🌐

Let us begin with the various fire & incident frequency charts provided to the public by the London Fire Brigade.  Concerning Greater London's size, it encompasses an area of 610 square miles.  

Keep in mind that, during July of 2022, the media kept stating that the rise in atmospheric co2 was finally causing an out-of-control rise in Greater London fires.  Well, the opposite is true.

From the Year 2004 to the Year 2022, the annual number of London Area fires were cut in half, in comparison to the fire numbers ranging from 1969 to 2004. In fact, each individual year ... from 2004 to 2022 ... was 1/3 of what it was in 1976.  

Moreover, the year prior (2021) was the year of the least number of fires in the record-keeping history of Greater London.  Meanwhile, the Year 2022 had the fourth least number of fires in the Greater London area ... since the beginning of record-keeping there.  In fact, while the atmospheric co2 level was rising throughout the years 2004 to 2022, the number of Greater London fires continuously decreased.  Therefore, an elevation of co2 will NOT cause your city or town to dry-out & burn-up.  See for yourself.

In July of 2022, the media claimed that atmospheric co2 finally reached a tipping point.  In July of 2022, the same media began the countdown to the End of the World ... proverbially speaking.   On the 19th of that month, the London Area thermometers went above 100F.  In London, the official reading was 102F.  In a town located 11 miles west of London, the reading was 104F, for two hours only.

The claim was that co2 was saturating the atmosphere so badly that it was now causing London to dry-out and burn out-of-control.   The newscasters claimed that, on July 19th, the London Fire Brigade had its "most incidents" since the bombing of London, in WWII.  

The same media said that the London Area had the most fires in any one day, on July 19, 2022.  The truth is that July 19, 2022 wasn't anywhere close to that.  In comparison to any WWII air raid, the July 19th incidents was less than chump change.  Compared to the daily average of fires in 1976, the number of fires on July 19th was 52 fires LESS.  

Compared to the daily average of Greater London fires in 1970, 1975, 1979, 1983, 1984, 1989, 1990, 1994, 1995, 2000, 2001, 2003 and a few other years, the number of July 19th fires were 24 to 38 LESS.  At the very least, there were approximately 2,500 Greater London days that had more fires than did July 19th day.  Reporting July 19th as the worst day since a world war was like lighting a candle with one matchstick and claiming it to be a 5-alarm fire.

In the entire Year of 2022, there were 19,297 fires in the 607 sq mile area known as Greater London.  In 1976, there were over 60,000 fires in the exact same area. In 1989, 1990, 1995, and 2003 there were over 55,000 fires EACH YEAR, in the exact same Greater London region.   More important is the fact that, in every year from 1969 to 2005, there were at least 40,000 fires.  That amounts to 37 consecutive years when the yearly fire count was at least TWO TIMES MORE than it was in 2022.   This also amounts to an average of 164 fires per day during 1976 versus an average of 53 fires per day in 2022.

Now, July 19 was an average day in terms of "incidents."  The daily average for 2022 was 343 incidents per day.  In 2022, 47% of all Greater London incidents were false alarms; 59,415 of them.

On July 19, 2022, there were 362 incidents.   On that same day, there were 142 false alarms.  There were 112 fires on that day, and that number has an ironic twist to it.  This is because the daily average of fires from 1970 to 2004 were at least 109.  Thus, July 19, 2022 was an average day, when looking at the big picture. 

A complete London Fire Brigade Incident Record for July 19 can be found directly below, via 7 photo-copies.  You can do the statistics yourself.

https://www.bluemarblealbum.com/2024/05/July2022-official-greater-london-fire-stats.html

Let's review this correctly, without any sleight of hand con artistry:

Between 1970 and 2004, the 610 square mile region known as Greater London had between 109 to 164 fires PER DAY.  This translates into 60,000+ fires per year and 40,000 fires per year.  Then, in the Year 2009, yearly London fires decreased below 30,000.  Then, in 2014, yearly fires decreased to 20,000 per year.  So, between 2015 and 2022, Greater London had an average of between 41 to 55 DAILY fires.  Thus, it was an unconscionable lie to have stated that Greater London's climate had gotten out of control.  The opposite was true.

The number of London fires were literally cut in half, while co2 increased significantly in the atmosphere.   Thus, a courtroom lawyer could actually tell a jury that the rise in co2 caused a decrease in London fires.  Yet, the truth is that co2 remains at such a small atmospheric level that it can't affect the air, either for good or for bad.  The only greenhouse gas which holds influence is water vapor.  In fact, Cirrus clouds retain infrared light more effectively than does co2.  

The atmosphere is humongous.  Acres of plants, trees, weeds, and blades of grass are all tiny, in comparison.  CO2 drives the biosphere; not the atmosphere.  The other greenhouse gases ... other than water vapor ... are too small in quantity to drive any air mass greater than a laboratory experiment chamber.

Ther article below is "truncated."  It's only part of the whole.  The entire article can be found by clicking here:

"London fires drop by 64% in a decade, according to brigade"

 

Back to 2022

The pronounced decrease in Greater London fires occurred while the population of the area increased by 1,300,000 people.  Now, an increase in population brings with it an increased probability of fires.  However, despite the simultaneous increase in the London Area population and in the atmospheric CO2 level, Greater London achieved an eighteen-year-long streak of consistently decreased fire event numbers.  Thus, CO2 is not as powerful as the media claims it to be, in killing-off society.   The asininity of demonizing CO2 is that, without CO2, life on Earth ceases.  After all, CO2 is the activator of photosynthesis. 

At this point, keep in mind that the media in July of 2022 showed houses or small buildings on fire, as if CO2 caused spontaneous combustion throughout London.  "Chart #17" below is from the London Fire Brigade, and it mentions that "House fires in Greater London have reduced drastically since 1981."  This decrease occurred while co2 levels were rising and while the population of Greater London was rising by an additional 1.3 million people.

This proves that in no way did the constant rise of atmospheric co2 cause an increase in Greater London fires.  Thus, the 2022 London news reports were all scams.  It was one big false alarm.   In as much, let's view additional evidentiary support provided by the London Fire Brigade:

Above:  The stats of 2021.  That's last year.  Last year was the year of the LEAST NUMBER OF FIRES in the London Area, in all of London's recorded history.  In as much, 14,929 is much less than 40,000.

Most important is that the co2 level of 2021 was the exact same co2 level of 2022, minus an insignificant one and a half parts per million.  The exact same co2 level gave the 610 square mile London Vicinity its LOWEST AMOUNT of fires-per-year, ever since record keeping began.  Thus, we have 100,000% proof that the co2 level of 2022 did NOT cause London to catch on fire, as the media very falsely claimed, to its future legal detriment. 

Above are the stats for the Year 2020.  This is the year with the second LOWEST number of fires.  17,409 is also much less than 40,000.

Directly below are the stats for the Year 2022, as of October of that year.  The Year 2022 will be one of the lowest incident & fire years on record.  In fact, it thus far is the year with the least number of incidents, depending on the November & December stats.  But as far as goes its final tally for fires, that is projected to be about 18,000 to 19,000, if this chart (posted in November) includes the October fire statistics.  If the chart below only includes the stats up to September, then the projected sum total is 20,000 to 21,000 for the year.  This also is much less than the typical 40,000+ yearly fires that occurred between 1968 and 2004.

This was "as of September 2022."

 

 

This was 2022 in its entirely; the fourth lowest number of fires in its record-keeping history.  Take note that there were 59,415 false alarms in the same year.

Below is the Year 2009.  It's posted here to show you that other years had many more fires than did the Year 2022, in addition to what the 2014 London Fire Brigade graph showed.  The 29,591 fires of 2009 are much more than the 14,929 fires of 2021 and the 19,297 fires of 2022.

 

 

Below is the Year 2010, posted to show the same.   The 27,462 fires of 2010 are a whole lot more than the 14,929 fires of 2021 ... and the 19,297 fires of 2022.  Thus, there was no co2 saturation burning-up Greater London.  It was all a lie.

 

And of course, in order to show that there is no cherry picking going-on here, the Year 2011 is included.  Its fire numbers are also much higher than those of 2022, as well as 2021.  Thus, 2022 was NOT the tipping point in any capacity.  It was merely another year where the media once again lied to the public.

 

 

Many other years had averaged many more calls (incidents) per day than 2022 ... and 2011.  In fact, the Year 2009 had an average of 370 "incidents" (fire calls) per day.  After all, it had 134,379 incidents.  There has always been a high number of fire-calls ("incidents") in Greater London, in any one day.   There were 350 "incidents" throughout Greater London, in 2022.  The average daily incidents for the entire year of 2022 was 348.  That was typically average ... not a record-breaking day.

 

UK's 2022 crop yields also prove the London-is-burning-due-to-co2 alarm to be a false one.

Now, when you see a fire occurring near green grass and green leafage, the fire is not fueled by dried-out grass and leafage.  Moreover, being that the media claimed England to have been the victim of drought and heatwaves in the Summer of 2022, one would logically conclude that the 2022 harvests of the UK would be dismal crop failures.  Well, they turned out to be very healthy crop yields, thereby showing the July 2022 media members to be a cabal of sophomoric liars.  Observe:

No downhill sliding board here.  Steady crop yield pattern, with increases, since the Year 2000.

In 2022, the UK enjoyed an 8 1/2% increase in cereal grains.  It was simply that there was an approximate 1% less and a 1 1/2 % less moisture content in the harvested grains than average.  So, where is the great co2 disaster in Britain, during 2022.  The agricultural industry didn't see one, at all. 

None the less, wheat was up 11% and barley was up 6%.  The UK's main oilseed harvest was up by 39%, but the crop yield increase was only 17%, being that the UK used more farmland for planting its main oilseed crop.  In fact, the UK used 13% less farmland for oats, and the oats yield for 2022 was surmised (estimated) to be 10% less than last year.  Technically, this translates into a humble 3% increase for UK oat farmers, per acre. 

Conclusion:  There is no man-made-co2 driven climate catastrophe occurring in Greater London.  

Concerning the commercial media networks' claim that mankind has to aggressively rid the atmosphere of the industrial "carbon footprint," you need to understand the following facts:  The atmosphere is made of [1] 78% carbon-free Nitrogen, [2] 21% carbon-free Oxygen, [3] 0.93% carbon-free Argon.  Thus, the Earth's atmosphere is already at least 99.93% carbon-free.  

 

Know that the concentration of co2 in the atmosphere is so low that, for every 2,398 molecules in the sky, only one of them is co2.  One more time:  Outside in the sky, there is 1 and only 1 co2 molecule for every 2,398 molecules out there.  Round it off to 1 co2 molecule for every 2,400 molecules in the atmosphere. 

 

China, India, & Indonesia are the present concerns:  Not London.

 

The only valid present concern is whether the construction of multiple Chinese, Indian, & Indonesia coal power plants will result in the aggressive rise in atmospheric co2, or will there be carbon capture technology provided with each new coal plant.  An aggressive rate of rise changes the picture, moderately for the present --- but significantly for the distance future, as in the next century.

 

At present, there's not an immediate hysteric concern.  No scientist publicly claimed that the world is coming to an end, due to "greenhouse gases" in twelves or in 112 years.  However, the recent history of Beijing does not give humanity much trust in the ruling political political of today's China, not to mention the ruling parties of India & Indonesia.  So, we cringe, wondering what will become of the atmosphere in the decades to come.  

 

This is why hoaxes like the London one have to be ejected from society's concerns.  China, India, & Indonesia are what count.  Not London and not healthy Australia ... and not the American Southwest which got its share of monsoon rains in recent years.  Moreover, there is the issue with Mercury and Sulfur Dioxide when it comes to coal use.  That must be addressed more so.  BTW, refusing to go to high school in Sweden isn't going to help, at all.

Qualifying Note:  The Sulfur Hexaflouride issue is the other important concern at present.  That one can still be proverbially nipped at the bud, though.  However, you don't jag around with something like Sulfur Hexaflouride.  You cut to the chase and get the task done.  The task is finding its substitute.   It's all too tempting for industry not to do so.

We proceed to 1901, 121 years before the July 2022 day placed under amplified attention by the media.  July 19, 2022 was presented as the unprecedented beginning of the End of the World.  The media claimed that it was a day unprecedented in the history of England.  They lied.  The truth is the climate is CYCLICAL --- unless something.   In as much, the Year 2022 was little more than the Year of the Great Deja Vu ... of 1922.  Enough newspaper photocopies on that year are already posted at thr Blue Mrble Album.  We'll go back further, to 1901, so that you can see that "this" has all been seen and experienced before, time after time.

Let's sail over to Italy, to see how it was doing in August of 1901.

It is often stated that "history repeats itself."  Well, that is the historically proven case, concerning Climate History.  And remember, in 1901 the co2 level was a mere 296 parts per million.  The co2 count was 121 ppm LESS than today.  It was 29% LOWER than today.  Yet, sweltering heat & much more dry drought-inducing heat occurred and reoccurred throughout the first four decades of the 20th Century than today.  This was when the co2 level was much lower than today.  

 In 2014, NASA declared that the worst drought year in the past 1,000 years was 1934.  The co2 level at he time was 309 ppm.  That's 108 ppm LOWER than today.  Yet, according to the Al Gore theory, 2020, 2021, and 2022 should have been the worst drought years.  Well, contrary to what the media claimed, Arizona & Nevada have been getting yearly monsoon rains.  This neglect of reporting the truth is the result of media's managers wanting to deceive you into thinking that we are trapped in a deadly circle of Dante's Inferno.  The truth is that we are doing nothing more than repeating history in a cyclical fashion.

In caveman days, the co2 level was 260 ppm.   And during recent heated eras, such as the Roman Warm Period & the Medieval Warm Period, co2 was only 280 ppm.  Today, atmospheric co2 is 421 ppm, and today's heat is quit  only a repeat performance of the past.  The two 1901 articles above are a small sample of the hundreds of pieces of documentary evidence which show that a rise in temperature is not dependent upon a rise in co2.  Rather, according to ice core analysis, a rise in temperature historically came first, resulting in added evaporation of ocean water and the simultaneous emission of additional co2 into the atmosphere.

Climate is a pattern --- not a week-long event or even a month-long event.  July 18th & 19th were the the result of a dry air mass from Northern Africa.   And yes, there were a couple weeks of no rain --- in July, when such a thing is likely to happen.  However, after July 19th, everything instantly went back to normal.  The "back-to-normal" part is the climate.  

To call July 2022 "unprecedented" makes knowledgeable people roll their eyes and say, "Give me a break, and cut it out with the theatrics."  After all, there was such a thing as the Great Fire of London in 1666, along with ~the Great Fire of Tooley Street, 1861, ~the Burning of the Parliament, aka the Palace of Westminster (which was a complex of buildings), 1834, ~the Whitehall Palace Fire, 1698, ~the London Bridge Area Fire, 1633, the first London Bridge Fire, 1135, ~the Southwark Fire of 1212, ~the Great Fire of 1087, ~the Great Fire of Aldgate which burned all the way to Ludgate and which included St. Paul's Cathedral, 961, ~the Fire of 120 AD, when the Romans ruled.  

And of course, there were the fires caused by Boudicca's rage.  Those were not atmospheric science issues.  In fact, the Great Fire of 120 AD could have been an act of war, as well.  None the less, calling the July 2022 London fires unprecedented invalidates a journalist, as much as does calling July 2022 a co2 cataclysm.  After all, the rise in co2 for the last 19 years was accompanied by a major decrease in London fires.

Now, Planet Earth has had atmospheric co2 at  levels 9 times and even 16 times HIGHER than today.  In fact, during the height of atmospheric co2, the Cambrian Explosion occurred, resulting in the emergence of multi-celled sea life.  And later in history, when atmospheric co2 was 9 times higher than today, the Ordovician Ice Age was in progress.  This assertion, of course, is all a matter of "ice-core proxy evidence," inter alia. --- (Inter alia means, "and other things.")  Incidentally, the "inter alia" included the stoma-count of fossilized leaves.  Stoma are openings in the leaves, where co2 is absorbed.

 

 Anyway, London had two back-to-back heat days, one week apart.  The first week comprised two 87 degree Fahrenheit days.  One week later, there was a 99 degree Fahrenheit day, followed by a 103 degree Fahrenheit day.  After the 103 Fahrenheit day of July 19, the temps immediately went back to normal.  But, the propaganda machines had a field day with Britain's sole 100+  Fahrenheit day.  Oh, it was Armageddon 3.0, the Apocalypse 4.0, and the End of the World, squared & cubed.

Needless to say,  it was everybody's fault, for riding in motor vehicles and keeping warm in the Wintertime, as well as using evil evil air conditioners in the Summertime. 

Below is the London Temperature Calendar, for July 2022.  Here's the London that was presented by the media as an overly heated inferno.  Show me where this super oppressive, long-term, human-body-killing heat is, in the London Summer of 2022.  Yes, there are a couple of weeks of temperature anomalies, in London.  But, there was nothing that resulted in the death phrases "may have caused" and "likely to have caused."  This was followed by a ridiculous number Paris experienced in 1976 & 2003.

And of course, there was so much misinformative hype about Paris in July of 2022 that it insults the intelligence.  Those news articles use the phrases, "likely to have caused" and "may have caused" a certain number of deaths that equaled the deaths suffered by Britain, during the first day of the Battle of the Somme.  None the less, deadly heatwaves, deadly droughts, deadly storms, deadly floods, deadly pestilence, deadly algae blooms, hurricanes, blizzards, cold snaps, Yellow Sky days, ice stacking, glacier growths, glacier meltdowns, etc, etc, etc.  It all happened throughout the past 700 years.  

The sophomorically trained and sophomorically educated journalists look for that one tipping point moment.   Climate is an habitual trend ... NOT a one-day, two-day or even two-week event.  Here, see the temperatures of July 2022 yourself.

The actual Great London Fire Brigade Incidents Report of July 19, 2022, showing that the media lied to humanity, as usual.

Prelim Note: Photocopies of the official July 19, 2022 London Fire Brigade's Incident Report are posted below, at the end of this post.  Also posted within this post are other official London Fire Brigade statistical products that were published for public view.   Such a conveyance of information is known as "public relations."

Let's review another insult to the intelligence, compliments of the modern commercial media.  July 19, 2022 was the day.  A dry wind had been in England from Africa.  Such a thing will reduce humidity considerably ... but only temporarily.   Also, the high temp of the day was over 100F.  Eleven miles from London, for two hours, the temperature was 104F.   Elsewhere nearby, it was 102F.

The day prior, it was an equally rare 98F.  Even the week prior had a few days in the mid-80s Fahrenheit, for the high of each day.  Other than that, England had no dreadful climate condition.  It was far from Paris during its 1911 heatwave, its 1976 heatwave, and its 2003 heatwave, as well as Paris' 2022 heatwave.  None the less, the media had to hyper-exaggerate the weather in London, telling the world that life-given co2 was now burning down London.  The actual claim was that the rise in co2 caused London area wooden structures and wooded areas to be easily vulnerable to igniting and burning.

So, the media showed the video of a regular, ordinary, everyday, run-of-the-mill fires.  The narrator was mentioning that that fire was ignited because the atmospheric co2 level had risen to an intolerable level.  It was said that the London Fire Brigade (the LFB) had its most "incidents" since World War II. It was said that the fire brigade was sooooo overwhelmed that it couldn't keep-up with all the calls made to its dispatcher offices.

The bottom line ... the conclusion ... was that the world had now reached a tipping point, and that the number of fires throughout the 607 square mile terrain called Greater London would keep increasing, month by month ... and year by year ... until complete catastrophe would prevail.

Now for the truth:  You need to begin with the statistical graph below, produced and published by the London Fire Brigade, itself.  It shows that, as of the Year 2014, the yearly number of fires which occurred in Greater London decreased by more than 50%.  Greater London fires were cut in half.  This, alone, invalidates the July 2022 doomsday claim of media reporters who are apparently far too lazy to do a little homework, before opening their mouths and causing emotional trauma amongst schoolchildren, their moms, and people who never do any true fact-checking.

Now, record-keeping of the fire calls to the Greater London Fire Brigade ... and the results of those phone calls ... began in 1966.  As you can see in the graph below, from 1970 to 2005, there were at least 40,000 fires per year in the 607 square miles area called Greater London.  In 1976, there were over 60,000 fires.  And in the Years 1970, 1979, 1983, 1984, 1989, 1990, 1995, 2001, and 2003, there were more than 50,000 fires per year in Greater London.

In contrast, in the Year 2022, when the media claimed that London was now being overwhelming with increasing fires, there were only 19,298 fires in Greater London.  More impactfully is the fact that, in the Year 2021, there were the LEAST NUMBER OF FIRES in any one year since Greater London record-keeping began.  In 2021, there were 14,929 fires.  

So, let us compare:  60,000+ fires in 1976 vs 14,929 fires in 2021.  Moreover, 50,000+ fires per year in 1970, 1984, 1990, 1995, 2001, and 2003 VERSUS 19,298 fires in 2022.

Now, compare the fire states in the incident record below to the graph above.  A lot less fires during the year when the mainstream media very falsely claimed that Great London fires were now on the rise, due to co2.  Fires in each year of the 2010s & 2020s had become half of what they were in the 20th Century.  Also take note that, in 2022, there were 59,415 false alarms.

For the record, below is the year with the least number of Greater London fires, namely 2021.  In addition, there were 53,486 false alarms in 2021.  Thus, the July 2022 news reports about London catching on fire in great numbers was a complete falsehood.

Below:  And of course, we need to contrast 2021 & 2021 with an yearly year.  Well, the earliest available is 2009.  There were more incidents and fires in 2009.  There were also 62,991 false alarms in 2009.

Below:  The LFB officially reported that house fires have reduced "drastically" since 1981.  Thus, the 2022 claim that co2 levels reached a tipping point that caused London fires to increase is a complete lie.

Below is yet another publication of the London Fire Brigade which reported that yearly fires between 2010 to 2016 were much lower than those which transpired from 1970 to 2005.  The yearly fires from 2017 to 2023 have even been lower in number.   This also shows that July 2022 media to have been a gang of liars, in asserting doomsday claims that were the opposite of the doomsday reports.

Now for the temperature record of July 2023, one year later.  If co2 caused Greater London to reach a tipping point, then the temperatures of this past July have been alarmingly high.  Below is the July report from the world-renown Weather Channel.  Look and see for yourself if the July 2023 were a month of blazing heat or a month of moderate and quite tolerable temps.

Directly Below:  The Month of July 2023 temperature report, by the equally renown Accuweather Corporation.

Added note: As far as goes the Summer of 2024, there was one day where the temperature reached 90F.  One 90 degree day is NOT the end of the world ... nor a climate crisis ... nor global boiling.

Below:  The actual July 19, 2022 London Fire Brigade Incident Report in detail.  Compare the statistical numbers of this day to those within the Years 1970 to 2005.  You will realize that in no way was July 19, 2022 the day of the most incidents or fires since WWII.  In fact, count all of the FALSE ALARMS for that one day.  You will end up counting 142 ... for only one day.  Even at that, the number 142 is not far away from the usual daily number of false alarms ... the average ... the median ... the expected.
