A quick note before the round-up: WordPress is keeping me on my toes with its idiosyncratic approach to processing comments.
It clears some comments immediately. Meanwhile, it is, for reasons unknown, deeply suspicious of certain commenters and requests that I approve most of their comments before posting them, which means that they can sit in moderation for hours if I’ve gone to bed.
It will also, I’ve recently realised, automatically consign comments to the spam-folder if a commenter has attempted to repost whilst the first comment is still being processed. So please be patient and don’t take any of this personally.

Re: Censorship
Now i understand why on so many blogs for such a long time it has said that my comments must be approved by a moderator.
One of the things that actually makes it impossible to achieve agreement in political discourse is that politics is not sceintific. Politics are informed by science. But to reach a political conclusion one not has to know not only what the facts are but to be able to prioritize the facts, understand which facts are the most relevent. But deciding what facts are the most relevent in a given situation is entirely subjective. The prioritizing that a person does is determined by that persons values. There can not be anything scientific about it because science can not say anything about what reality should be.
Another thing that people will never be able to agree on is which sources A grade sources. I myself have reached a point that the more formal academic credentials someone has the less I think that they should be trusted. 25 years ago I was still very impressed by academic credentials.
Curt I’ve been spending an ungodly amount of time in and around universities and with people employed by colleges of universities , and I agree to some extent with your point. My personal cynicism is more aimed at the European gutmensch bandwagon of the crowd both pro environment and pro overpopulation and middle class for the whole world , at the same time all to be arranged and facilitated by europe . But , yes in general there are more and more questions about experts in all fields
But I won’t stand for sources being used to “pr0ve” somehow that China is an untouchable part of the world economy and to be handled with silk gloves while at the same time not even acknowledging the deeply problematic state of mind of the chinese state and the destruction, both environmental and cultural, chinese companies unleash worldwide . I have witnessed their corrupting forces in africa , asia and latin america with my own eyes.
Such was the debate in the week I was referring to and I had to apologize now, to justin for not knowing how the technicalities work in managing a website like his
Funny thing about trusting experts, during Corona I saw the same people (with college degrees ) both studying every detail of the virus but not really wanting to know the origins of it . Me, I got the three shots, and after I will always search for the truth until the day we get some closure
Trust , but verify . And rather , be very very sceptical of grand economic plans and structures
The EU started out as a great idea and is a woke machine now. Very unfortunate for the very real climate issues
It seems to me that whether the EU was “woke” or not would make no difference to its destructive, self-serving, and suicidal tendencies. Instead it feels like a convenient battleground over multiple cultures of industrialism (chiefly an atheistic constructivism and Christian corporatism – no I will not defend the terms I just made up) that do nothing to question the higher problem – industrialism (or an even higher ones of agrarianism and pastoralism).
It is almost impossible to know what to believe and trust, especially with each side claiming their Absolute Knowledge, invoking God or the Objective, and now with LLMs being able to write books in less than a second. And yes it is very clear how little experts are to be trusted.
However, the old ideals of Balance and a ridding of dichotomies seems a good place to start, and I appreciate the perspectives of the people here, including yours.
The fact-based reports from around the burning globe are always fascinating, but the “commentary” ones that are starting to pop up are reliably hopium-laced.
The professors collated in the first Guardian article make a show of informed despair, but they’ve got classes to teach, institutions to uphold, checks to cash or retirement, so it’s German bike lanes to the rescue, or some such.
Chris Clugston’s new book “Industrialism: Our Commitment to Impermanence” will tell you where this is heading.
Collapse is not an “opportunity.” It’s death, and that’s not a subject we non-dead humans want to experience at the moment.
Pain, neither, so good luck Pan-O and hope medication can help you.
Thanks, Martin. I don’t want to over-egg my suffering, as it is not too bad in the grand scheme of things – just auto-immune periodontitis. I’m 50 now and was pretty hedonistic in my youth, so some wear and tear is probably to be expected. 😆
“The end of our industrial lifestyle paradigm will be dictated by Liebig’s Law, and by humanity’s response to its consequences. Unfortunately, it is impossible to know at this point which increasingly scarce non-renewable natural resource (NNR) or NNR combination will ultimately prove to be industrialized humanity’s limiting factor.
“Consequently, humanity’s global societal collapse may be triggered by scarcity associated with one or more NNRs other than those commonly considered “most critical” to the perpetuation of our industrial lifestyle paradigm—fossil fuels, or oil specifically. After all, the space shuttle Challenger disaster was caused by a faulty o-ring.” [Chris Clugston]

I found his tweet yesterday disappointing, claiming an Antarctic sea ice reduction based on one set of data and conflicting values with other sets. For example, climatereanalyzer shows slightly lower figures and no sea ice reduction. I don’t want to be too critical of him though 😉
Thanks, David. That is certainly worth pointing out.
I do my best to vet content but time is always pressing. He’s usually pretty good, as are the other Twitter feeds I follow. In an ideal world I would just post articles but news often breaks first on Twitter (sorry, X 🙄) now and you can find bite-sized chunks of important info with graphs that really help with the overview.
Here’s a recent article on the Antarctic sea ice: “Antarctic sea ice levels dive in ‘five-sigma event’, as experts flag worsening consequences for planet.”
https://www.abc.net.au/news/2023-07-24/antarctic-sea-ice-levels-nosedive-five-sigma-event/102635204
I only mention it because it was posted on r/collapse on Reddit yesterday as this Big Deal, when the situation is dire enough and even distracted from the worsening anomaly figures. I didn’t see it here and appreciate your work in amalgamating these articles 🙂
Hi David
I also follow the reddit discussions, generally easier than Xtwitts. On one thread, I found an explanation as follows:
**Does anyone know why does it look so much more exaggerated than in this graph? https://climatereanalyzer.org/clim/seaice/
(might need to click ‘Switch Hemisphere’)
On that graph it also looks extremely bad, but 1-3 standard deviations bad, not 6.

Because what you have is the raw data. The graph OP showed is measuring relative relationships in the ice through standard deviations.
OP’s graph shows that the current lack of sea ice is outside the realm of normativity for Antarctica.
Your graph shows that as the slight downward tail but is much less exaggerated because it shows the actual extent of the ice without putting it into an easier to understand relativity. To help explain this point the sea ice in Antarctica is remarkably consistent, and as such the variation of it is normally very small. The standard deviations are close together due to this consistency. As such a moderate change might seem not as severe which is where putting it as relative to the rest of the data via standard deviation gives us a better picture of how unusual and bad this is. (Just look at your graph. Besides for 2023 it is pretty much just a thick line)
(Standard Deviations are just a measure of variability. In a bell curve distribution which is what most natural phenomena follow, anything outside of 3 standard deviations is considered extremely unlikely. For context -1 deviations to 1 deviations covers about 68% of all possible data and -3 deviations to 3 deviations covers about 99% of all possible data. So what we’re seeing now in OP’s graph is that the decline in your graph is FAR outside what is considered normal or even possible. Based on OP’s graph the probability for the 2023 data staying so low currently is I think about 9.9012×10-10 (or about 0.00000000099012%) (To calculate I used normalcdf, lower value 1×10-99, upper value -6, mean 0 and standard deviation 1)
Our current data models for Antarctic sea ice have now either failed or 2023 is a big outlier. I’m not a scientist but I’d wager that Antarctica has reached a tipping point that might require new models to fully understand)
Source: Took Statistics and Data Analysis
In short, climatereanalyser, shows the raw actual data of sea ice extent in sq. kms…
in the graph doing the rounds its been recalculated from sq kms to “deviations” from a longer term averages.
Secondly, satellites can only measure extent in surface area and cant really define how much thinning or loss of volume has occurred.
But with this sudden drop in extent, its likely its been reducing volume for years without losing much surface area, but has now reached a point where its thinned so much the perimeter edges are not freezing.
I saw an example somewhere. If you put a square block of ice in your living room and let it melt at room temp, it will keep its shape (and top layer surface area) fairly constant for quite some time, until it thins enough to start collapsing at the edges.
I get all that Rain, but what Eliot was talking about at the same time was a decrease in the extent of ice:
“Antarctic sea ice extent is the headline for me this morning. There was actually a net *decrease* in ice extent day over day, and it’s mid-winter there, peak freeze season.”
He then posted a table of the sea ice extent – not anomalies – that showed it decreasing on the 23rd July. The climate reanalyzer data plots the same thing, but with different values showing no decrease.
Thanks, Rain. It warms the cockles of my heart to see a doomer being taken seriously by the mainstream.
Given all the records being broken, it seems daily, I was wondering if there are any charts showing the number of records being broken on a daily basis – surface sea temp, max mins, heavy rainfall, sea ice, consecutive days of heat, etc. Are there any macro-climate sources that provide visuals on the (seemingly) exponential increase in the number of climate records, by category?
Curtis, I’m not aware of any sources offering that but it’d be great if there was one… Hopefully someone better informed on this will chime in.
Maximillo Herrera (spelling sorry) compiles stuff at extreamtemps, but I tried to find it, and could not – it may be that he only tweets. I think if you posted the same question at:

you might get lucky, and Dr. Masters or Mr. Henson would answer. Their regular commenters are very knowledgeable as well.
I post quite a few of Maximiliano Herrera’s Tweets, as he is the best source bar none for breaking news on temperature records around the world. Major news outlets like WaPo and The Guardian use him a source. He does keep a website, too:
