Scientists are now reporting that global warming is accelerating. And it's a sharp acceleration! The past decade (since 2015) has seen faster warming (global temperature increases) than any other years since modern records began in 1880. Yikes!

Again: The planet's warming rate is accelerating! Researchers agree that this is due to climate change. The biggest culprits are the emissions from burning of fossil fuels (oil, gas, coal).  We can see that this is happening in real time, yet nothing is being done - at least not in the US.

From Science Daily: Scientists detect a sharp acceleration in global warming

Global warming has sped up since around 2015, according to a new analysis from the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (PIK). After removing the effects of natural temperature swings, researchers found the first statistically significant evidence that the planet's long-term warming rate is accelerating. ...continue reading "Global Warming Is Now Accelerating"

This past week, the Earth was at its greatest distance from the Sun, which is known as the aphelion. At aphelion, we are about 94.5 million miles from the sun.

Another fun fact: July 2, 2026 at noon was the middle of this year - with 182.5 days on either side.
