Climate mystery rule

Maybe the models didn't place it as the hottest. Even with an upward trend, not every year has to be hotter than the previous and other factors (or even model inaccuracies) can yield unexplained results.

"Money goes in, lies go out. You're not allowed to explain that" - first page of the Faux News employee handbook

I shared this before. The war on NPR for reporting facts in the past years has forced it's editorial team to "soften" some of these facts so conservatives don't get triggered. They receive public money from the gov and all.

Just because we are stuck in the worst timeline, it will split the difference at 1.4 and both sides will be raging.

Exacerbating? 😄

I guarantee all of those companies have a CEO and a whole-ass board of directors that can be easily found

This is from last August/September so it might have changed:

🔷 National Public Radio (NPR)

---

◾ NPR is a membership organization. Member stations are required to be non-commercial or non-commercial educational radio stations; have at least five full-time professional employees; operate for at least 18 hours per day; and not be designed solely to further a religious broadcasting philosophy or be used for classroom distance learning programming. Each member station receives one vote at the annual NPR board meetings—exercised by its designated Authorized Station Representative ("A-Rep").
