Ongoing Global Warming Acceleration: 2026 to be Record Warm; Beaten by 2027: Latest by James Hansen

Ongoing Global Warming Acceleration: 2026 to be Record Warm; Beaten by 2027: Latest by James Hansen Global Warming continues to accelerate, wreaking havoc on human society and our entire planet. James Hansen boldly predicts that for the rest of 2026 this acceleration will continue, and cause us to surpass 2024 which is the warmest year ever. He also predicts that 2027 will be even hotter than this year. The fundamental basis for this is not just El Nino which is just kicking up warming, but the overall acceleration of global warming due to a few key factors, namely: 1) Earth albedo (reflectance) is continuing to decrease (darken) meaning that more incoming sunlight is being absorbed. 2) Earth climate sensitivity is much higher than the IPCC value of 3 degrees C warming for a doubling of CO2, and is in fact closer to 4 or 5 degrees Celsius (call it 4.5). 3) Earth Energy Imbalance (EEI) is continuing to rapidly increase, accelerating global warming. The root cause of this is the reduction of aerosols causing significantly fewer low level clouds over the planet (mostly over the oceans) leading to a much lower albedo. Record warming for this year (2026) and even higher record warming for 2027 are very bold predictions, given that for the first 6 months of the year 2024 temperatures have exceeded 2026 temperatures for every month. I would bet that Hansen is correct, but we will see what happens over the next few months. Hansen is clearly annoyed that the media persistently blames the present El Nino for record heat waves and climate disruption this year so far, even though it is just kicking in now. Batten the hatches, and buckle down, since we are on a wild global warming acceleration roller coaster...
