With *record* El Nino (peaking 2 months from now), expect many many many more records to fall like dominoes. Which record will *NOT* fall: interest in climate crisis. #ElNino #ClimateCrisis #RecordBreaking #Nospecificcountrycodesarementionedinthetweet.
Hear the silence? I do. We have already normalized record El Niňo in recorded (known) history. But dont worry. Future Niños are going to get stronger (coz warming has accelerated). #ElNiño #climatechange #globalwarming #Nospecificcountrycodesarementionedinthetweet.
