Yeah.. Global warming is a fake.. It's LOCAL warming..

What a mystery that these record-breaking hot temps keep happening in Alaska and the Arctic! I wish that we understood why the weather around the world seems to be changing. Maybe as your story implies, it’s a good and fun thing! Maybe could investigate? climatesilence

I’m here for the ratio. The ratio of hot to cold record breaking days, which in a stable climate is 1:1. Alaska is now over 10:1 with some parts of the state (Homer) over 100:1. That means, in Homer, for every one record breaking cold day, there’s now over 100 record hot days.

Welcome to the New Alaska!

Heat waves have nothing to do with CO2, NPR.

Yet according to some, there isn’t any global warming!! That’s “fake news”. 🙄🙄🙄

The processes driving the extreme temperatures in Anchorage, indeed in all of Alaska are a result of Arctic amplification as climatechange alters the far North to something humans have never experienced. Why no mention of this ?

How do you write a piece like this and not mention climate change? Reporters like laurelwamsley and media orgs like have a duty to inform the public about the unfolding crisis. They are failing.

Oh no! Guess the worlds going to end?

But I thought weather was not climate change?

😲

its july so yea it gets hot in the summer...the sky is not falling

ryankailath Nothing to see here, but some ice melting . . .

This is the problem for climate deniers-it is hard to deny water lapping at your door or coming through your 2nd fl windows; or debilitating heat and cold; or tornados tearing apart your home.

Lord...

yikes

I hope my brother-in-law (Trump Supporter) got a terrible sunburn.

The end it’s coming.

Yet climate change doesn’t exist 🙄🤬

What of the cooler than normal weather in eastern Europe and the best snow year in 30 years in the American west? I can't find stories on those. Behold the Global Warming Circus. They run to whatever location is abnormally warm and start playing the calliopes.

That sounds impossible?

Time to build those nuclear reactors for clean electricity.

oh alaska.....

When will the Republicans get it? Right, when they can make money from it.
