Pictured is a graph of historical global sea-surface temperatures across the year from 1982-2024. Yesterday was about 0.3°C warmer than last year. Well, maybe it will go back down since this is an El Niño year? :>
Average global surface air temperature in February 2024 was 1.77°C warmer than the average February from 1850-1900. So maybe we can retire those 1.5°C warming goals now?
However, the IPCC reports that global temperatures have only risen by 1.1°C. This is because they use decade-long averages. Indeed, it is completely possible that 2025 will be cooler than 2024, but crop failures don't care much for averages. 
And if global warming has accelerated, the IPCC's method will be a decade late to realizing it. Not that they can actually do anything about it...
bruh we're going to figure out how to kind of communicate with cetaceans this decade only for them to go extinct due to food web collapse
"Hey guys. So, first thing, we're really excited to finally break the interspecies communication barrier! Truly a watershed moment for both our kinds. Second thing: and this is really awkward, but we did kind of a major oopsie. Really sorry about that."
First message from us to another species will be explaining the concept of death so that we can subsequently apologize for killing them.
In Disco Elysium, the cryptozoologist talks about an intelligent species of sonic waves of some kind, found to be communicating with distinct regional languages.
The scientists trying to communicate with the sound waves accidentally release a sonic wave that causes them all to pop, and their popping makes the same sound, which spreads until there isn't a sign of any of them left on the planet.
I think about that one story of hers a lot.
