Japan broke it's All-time NATIONAL heat record for the 2nd time in... checks notes... less than a week! It's not coincidence. It's climate change. Japan is surrounded by the most anomalously hot water on the planet right now. The city of Isesaki hit 107 - it's in a valley NW of Tokyo. 1/
😱
Many decades ago, there was talk about the next ice age and global cooling. Truly those were happier times.
😢

No one tell the Europeans, they'll be here in seconds to explain why it's actually 10C cooler but somehow worse in Britain
But - but global warming is a hoax! 🤦🏻♀️
I cannot even imagine how awful that is in Japan's high humidity.
Climate change. Say it louder.
In the meanwhile, Uruguay is already at 75% renewable of all energy use. Uruguay was nearly bankrupted by fossil fuels use They are now near independent And economy is back under control!! Why isn’t this in the news??? Fight climate change AND become energy independent!!
Thank you for sharing! Uruguay gives me hope!
Is anyone doing anything about it? I don’t think so. My wife & I are in our 70’s/80’s. We’ll make it through. Our daughter is in her 40’s (no children). She’ll make it through. The generation after hers probably is going to have survival issues. By that time responsible politicians will be gone too
🙏 hope they can stay safe. The planet is getting hotter. Is not getting better anytime soon
And not there are fears of what these record temps will do to rice crops across the country!
😯awful! It’s humid there.
Jeff i don't mind you used Fahrenheit im on my phone and can do a simple conversion on my phone. What I do mind is CLIMATE CHANGE! 😫
I guess that means it time to increase fossil fuels use!
ohh noo😯
Obviously this is a lie because water boils at 100 deg. And Japan definitely uses a metric system. So checkmate.
This is picked up by an international audience (e.g. me in the UK), 95% of which don't understand these moronic units. A simple conversion to ºC would save a lot of effort and create better engagement. #MoreMetric.
UK newspapers use F when it is hot and C when it is cold Amongst their lies that is
Do the Japanese use Fahrenheit? 107 vs 106 is only half a degree difference in Celsius.
Global warming is real and we are all going to die when the earth stays hot. Sorry 😞
Typhoon season should be fun
Actually no one knows what the temperature was before records were kept. This All-time bs is just click bait.
Based on this comment and your profile description, you're the only bullshitter here Jim.
The problem is that no one is offering research based solutions. Just claims that have failed time and again and then get all insulted when people say they don't believe. After all, FL is not under water and everyone knows the climate has been changing since day 1.
Seems like you've got a low understanding of the issue, and you're blaming your ignorance on the scientific community. Have someone you trust explain this for you and stop calling BS online. You're the problem, not the scientific consensus.
Community is what? Consensus? Study Popper.
Anti-science propaganda sounds convincing when you don’t understand the subject. It relies on exploiting ignorance.
There's nothing I have written that indicates I am anti-science. In fact, science promotes discussions, theories, etc. Do U understand what Popper meant and his Falsification Theory and have U applied it to the claims re climate change and global warming?
Claiming no research-based solutions exist ignores decades of peer-reviewed science. Believing anti-science propaganda—even unintentionally—is still anti-science because it rejects tested evidence.
Try looking it up before whining www.cbsnews.com/amp/news/jap...
Exactly what a Nazi blood death cultist trumpturd asshole would say
Glad to hear from U. But I see your discussion/debate capabilities have not improved.
Look children, he's reading another comic book.
Are you a Nazi? Watch out🖕
You lie just like your hero the orange turd Aren't you late for your Klan meeting?
Wow tell us more. Of course it's not all time. There was a time billions of years ago that Earth was a molten hellscape. We will never have precise data points dating back centuries, but there are ways to estimate climate statistics dating back centuries.
So your response is to use "estimates" to have the government destroy western civilization. Can U think of ways to mediate the increases without destroying? I am reminded of the Vietnam War, "We had to destroy the village to save it."
Moreover, it's still alarming that these records that are happening *across the globe* are high points after centuries of data in some cases. Look at maps of global temperature anomalies and tell us nothing is wrong.
Could U provide us with some detail regarding the "in some places."
That's why they call it a record high and not the hottest it's ever been. You new to language? ffs the planet used to be molten lava.
It's click bait put out to scare U into doing what U are told to do.
lol you're dumber than shit. You should be in an elementary school classroom right now, studying.
Phd in what? French Literature?
Double-Ivy but still can't spell the word "its" 😞
Can we get that in metric? Outside the US, nobody knows what that means
*climate CRISIS. Use your words wisely. Start by using the correct one! We are in a CRISIS, not just change.
Wiw
Wow oops
His,her, its No apostrophe #grammar
Right. Unfortunately the atmosphere is still livable. We have to wait until the extinction to begin again. Go back to your chamber.
107? Is everyone dead?
Nothing to see here. Drill drill drill baby.
Add Japan’s notorious August humidity to the equation and the atmosphere is a pressure cooker—
Wait you mean climate change isnt a hoax?
Fuuuuuuck..... I live in Tucson where we regularly hit 107f, but we have a DRY heat. I CANNOT imagine 107f in the high humidity of a Japanese summer 😭😭 not just brutal, gotta be deadly ~ wet bulb territory
41.7 °C. Més de 10 °C que el que fins ara era habitual. Acompanyat d'una anomalia tèrmica de l'aigua de la mar. No hem posat restriccions radicals a l'emissió de diòxid de carboni i metà i ara ja som dins de la catàstrofe.
Well, according to the Orange farce, if we drill baby drill, dig baby dig, we can use all them fossil fuels to work the Air Conditioning... Maybe we can use huge air conditioning to cool down cities .. just like when I suggested bleach to fight COVID... I have the best ideas... Love me.....
Heat records are being broken with less and less time between them
This post was referring specifically to Japan which is affected by the warming ocean around it
What is than in normal measurement?
www.reuters.com/sustainabili... eos.org/research-and... www.pbs.org/newshour/pol... I can go on
They will say it's because *insert some baseless excuse that has been disproven by science years ago here*
107 is about an average day here in Arizona summer.
That doesn't communicate to 95% of the planet who don't use ºF, but still pick up skeets.
no, it's not. It's a humid 107. You sous vide to death if you're not in air conditioning or at the coast.
Yep, no humidity here. But it was 106 today. Two weeks ago my wife and I were in Mexico. It was 80° human enough that the sweat was rolling down my arms my back my legs..
Sweat is effective in dry heat. You CAN cool off if you stop doing stuff, and I've found dry 100+ tolerable. Over a certain temperature, dew point and humidity, you WILL DIE even if you just *sit there* (wet bulb temperature).
I like 100. My wife not so much but I like it. If the sun starts to get too hot, all we do is walk inside or under the patio.
I'm in Phoenix, jealous of Japan: it's currently 113 degrees. It's gonna be 115 degrees tomorrow.
Holy shit 107 is above boiling point.
To republicans its a hoax..but the insurance companies rely on hard data to set their rates and they say climate change is real, and that as predicted, a warming world also brings more frequent and more intense storms globally. Insurance companies leaving Florida and Texas, and higher rates for all.
Yawn. When the sea level changes elevation by, say, 1 foot in 10 years, we will have something to worry about.
41.7°C.
Thank you! A conversion to a unit 95% of the planet understands.
Actually the reported value is 41.8 °C. Of course, Japan uses the metric system and °C for temperatures. When converting the value to the Fahrenheit skale, somebody introduced a rounding error by rounding 107.24 °F down to 107 °F.
I spent all my working life designing commercial A/C systems, then Building Environment Management Systems for specialist facilities, now I'm retired I'm not bothered about +/- 0.1°C anymore, especially for outdoor dry bulb temperature. 😀😂
Thank you.
Jeez. That's even considered hot here in Adelaide, Australia, where we get lots of days over 40 in the summer It's unbearable and most air-conditioning can't cope with it The cold water comes ot hot from the taps Birds and bats drop out of trees Wild animals die It's deadly weather
On Sunday we had a Heat Index (feel like) of 50°C at our home here in the Philippines. The HI is almost always over 40°C, usually 42-47°C. Our highest this year has been 52°C. We only use our air con from midday to 10pm, we live 4am to 8pm.
I looked up the temp that is considered to be inconsistent with human life a few years ago... it was 56°C. That's when we moved to Tassie.
Wow that’s hot so very hot. Those folks are feeling hot 🥵 hot hot
I can't wait till next year when we break the record again
You spelled week wrong
Lol touche
#ChildrenOfKali
If the ocean is hotter the typhoons an subsequent hurricanes are bigger, badder, an more catastrophic. Bye bye ocean front dwellers !!
Good thing that they will soon be importing Ford F150 monster trucks. This will certainly help them flee the weather apocalypse.

It’s brutal with the humidity. I live in Tokyo and yesterday was probably the hottest day and night I’ve ever experienced
Drink plenty of water and try to stay in as much as possible!
Thanks. We hang out at the library as much as possible
And here we are in the US cancelling all regulations protecting us from climate change. It’s insane!
That's because TACO doesn't believe in it.
Damn!
💔
But the USA president says climate change is a hoax and therefore he’s destroying two multimillion dollar satellites to hide his lies.
Wow!
A strong heat ridge to the south is now giving way to a deep trough with gusty winds ahead of it. Nestled in-between mountains, a downslope wind likely amplified the heat through compressional heating. I'll follow up later with an animation.
last week the plaka in athens was 108. these are not temperatures for humans.
That's just a normal summers day in Perth, Western Australia 😀
hope you have a/c!!
Yes, but not when we're working outside 😝
Prophetic. Each year is warmer & warmer.
Or even simpler, it's physics, so you can clearly predict what's coming. No one can outsmart physics, and humanity will have to be measured by it: either reinvent itself or perish before the first filter of civilization. Desaster (Dystopie) or Design (Utopie) -> The choice is easy.
Physics always wins. It doesn't care if we believe in the warming planet. The world doesn't care if we're here. We need to care about the environment because it supports us.
consent, it is even the case that the executioner of climate change will send one horrendous bill after another to the various federal budgets, which CANNOT be answered with the doctrine of the globally networked feudal eternal growth economic order and is therefore in its post-phase.
Each year, we see warmer temps. Each year we see more natural disasters! Prophecy! Biblical proportions, as they say. Mere mortal have no power over any of it. We lost our way a long time ago.
This rolling catastrophe has momentum. Once we stop adding carbon to the atmosphere, temps will continue warming for quite a while. So we need to stop ASAP.
We agree :-)
I think we've passed the point of repair. Scientists were yelling to the rooftops about emissions & games breaking the ozone. Industry continued. So we've passed the warning point. Now just wait & try to live with it!
Sure...we're in a hole. A deep one. We can still stop digging. There will be damage which wouldn't have occurred if we'd have stopped 15 years ago. There will be damage which wouldn't have occurred if we'd stopped 30 years. Unfortunately, we can't start from where we want to be. We are where we are.
For sure, we're well into warming which will take hundreds of years to reverse. Now we're just trying to limit and mitigate the damage while building a more adaptable infrastructure.
"Now just wait & try to live with it!" As a global humanity, we will have to learn to live with the irreversible damage that has already been caused, so we will have to focus on those things that can still be saved and, with luck, partially reversed with the help of technology.
But we have a lot of power, as much power as the anthropogenic climate change can be stopped immediately through the criminal crime of burning fossil waste, and in this way, an intensification of the climate catastrophe can be slowed down. This is a question of decision.
We have the technology, it's a question of will. The tech isn't experimental, and it's being manufactured at scale. We just need to do it.
Ok, but industry would have had to slow down around 2010! They did not. Scientists warned that we were passing the threshold! Now we see complete climate change & i doubt you can stop the effects when you've already made the damage!
There's a certain amount of uncertainty, always. The main thing is that we stop as soon as possible...even if we're perilously close to really severe disruptions. We really can't make it better, but we can continue to make it worse.
The way has not been paved but it is not too late because all easy solutions to our global catastrophe are solvable
Physics sure. But the entire planet is hot & melting. The animals are dying. GOD CAN OUTSMART PHYSICS and that's exactly what's happening. If you know anything about the Bible, it states all of this madness over 2k yrs ago! Keep it real. Man is mortal.
Or anything wishing to live.
Why do you use these archaic measurements?
😂 climate changes all the time! But climate change as in the liberal state of climate change, doesn’t exist! Also! You should know that the U.S. military has been experimenting w/weather modification since 1946 and Jimmy Carter signed the Weather Modification Act, in 1979.
No one could see this coming. Correction: EVERYONE could see this coming, explaining why in the US Trump Republicans have been cancelling climate science fast as they can.
The fact that Japan is hitting temperatures that we see the desert but they have insane levels of humidity makes me so uncomfortable. I’m almost glad to live in an oven. I miss the days when this was just for Arizona. Inflicting this heat on the rest of the planet is horrifying.
🥵😱
#EndFossilFuels
It is no surprise that multiple #Russian 🇷🇺 #volcanoes 🌋 have activated this werk Reducing #glacier #ice weight from #polar #caps will move #tectonic plates & #magma flow
We were there a couple of years ago in September. It got up to 36 degrees Celsius. I don't usually sweat at home, but I was an absolute puddle, to the point of having to tie a little towel around my neck. Their heat is different. Those poor people 😬
That's 41 degrees for the rest of us. I read it was 50 in Turkey.
Yep. And pushing back on the whole imposition of ºF on the rest of the world is a good thing. Thanks!
Japan uses the metric system.... It's also an island chain that stretches over 20 degrees of latitude with consequently varied climates.
👹Climate CRISIS us More like it!
Wow!
My kid lives in Osaka... says it's been absolutely brutal.
The evidence is there, but in the U.S. conservative Republicans continue to insist that climate change is a hoax invented by liberals. There is no end to the stupidity.
With their humidity that is no joke. Was there just a couple of weeks ago thinking “I’m from FL so no big deal”. It was brutal and that was at 95 F 🥵
Fake news. Japan is on the metric system. 107° would boil water.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
I'm living through it and it's not very enjoyable. I got heat exhaustion last Tuesday after less than 30 minutes (split 10, 5, 10) outside. It's brutal and made worse by the lack of greenery.
Ah. That explains all the fanning and umbrellas I'm seeing in current Japanese YouTube videos.
I mean I can think of a day in history that was much hotter
Non sequitur.
Poor Japan. Poor all of us with this heat!!. Climate change & prophecy!
“Don’t look up”
😮
Flash flooding caused by a massive cloudburst was filmed wiping out buildings in a Himalayan town in India on Tuesday, as rescuers fear dozens are trapped.
I was watching this and said to myself that's no flash flood its a landslide, sure enough. Those villagers never knew what was coming.
Soon nowhere will be habitable.
😳 OMG 😳
Maybe we need a better myth for REALITY? www.youtube.com/@M.BrianPalm...
Meanwhile, in Australia, Barnaby leads the charge against Net Zero. The mining magnates provide his foundations
That’s weather not climate
Only 98 here in CA wine country. They have us beat (for now...)
There is no way Japan got over the boiling point of water two weeks in a row... Next you'll try telling me that's in Fahrenheit- like Japan would ever use that outdated noise.
Fox News: their temperature gauges are too close to dryer vents.
It’s a hoax, right? Just ask the DT.
Everything is ok!
No one listened.
I hope Japan and its population will be safe.
Anyone who doesn’t believe that climate change is happening, and that we’re making it worse, is delusional or stupid. And anyone who know it’s happening but claims it’s not for political or financial gain is beyond EVIL!
The confusion of climate change and weather is one of the major hindrances in getting the reality of climate change accepted. Add in the tendency to call it “global warming” and you make the skeptics job too easy.
I wonder if the nuclear leak after their big earthquake years ago have anything to do with it.
I hear that...🥵🥵🥵🥵
Good , when you catch fish 🐟 they're already half cooked ‼️🤨😂
Wow. It’s urgent.
Allow me to correct to you it's 41°C Which is a lot ... but not as much as 50°C in Turquey this year ; The difference is that we are reaching in some place not a maximum never approch but a limit to life it-self (around 55°C)
I still maintain part of the problem was that originally it was labelled global warming and everyone in the Midwest US heard "you won't have to shovel snow out of your driveway ever again" and so didn't see the problem
That's 41,5⁰C for anyone who doesn't use fahrenheit.
107 degrees. Wow. And that's nothing compared to what next year is gonna be like. I'd say by 2027 we will have complete societal breakdown.
Japan broke heat record…41.8ºC breaking the previous week record of 41.2ºC…..there fixed that for you….as Japan uses C. Geez, the USA has to get the F out of reporting temperatures;)
Oh, my!
As Trump lowers car emissions regulations for one of the biggest polluting countries on Earth , us !!!!!
Oil coal..greed..why not invent the next propulsion Japan and ditch oil/gas....I wish Shell,Mobil,Chevron,B/P,et al. Would stop the greed steal of oil!!! Mother will bless you and humanity may not go extinct as soon as we will if oil continues
Japan is probably the most advanced country in the distribution and use of Hydrogen. They are building infrastructure now to replace O & G. Unlike every other country.
Thanks for bringing this to our attention. My family is planning a trip to Japan at the end of September. Hope the temperatures get cooler by then. How are the locals dealing with it?
It's so hot, even Godzilla decided to stay under the ocean! (I'll see myself out)
Since Japan - like the entire world except the US - uses Celsius, the local temperature was 41.8°. Not 107.
How are the Japanese macaques doing?
107° F is right in line with how hot Chennai, India gets during the dry monsoon.
No it isn't, because India doesn't do moron measurements, they use ºC like all other sane people on earth.
