Alaska Got Its First-Ever Heat Advisory

Monday, June 23, 2025

In a city where permafrost thaw buckles roads, homes lack air conditioning, and the high at this time of year is generally in the low 70s, the warning comes as a sign of rapidly shifting climate. Alaska is warming more than twice as fast as the global average.

OK, you win. I will give up travel by private jet. When can I expect the climate to return to normal?

Yesssss... but it's a dry heat...

To tell you the truth... from personal experience, I lived in Alaska for 14 years and saw more than one day of 90F in Fairbanks. I loved hanging out there in the summer. It's an amazing place. I'm curious why it was a "heat advisory". People in AK start tearing their clothes off when it breaks 45F... you know... shorts weather.

A few decades after you morons stop electing climate change deniers.

How did you feel when you learned that the anti climate propaganda you've parroted for years was the product of exxon's PR department, after their own scientists concluded their oil products would heat the climate?

The choice is we give up modern civilization in favor of mass starvation, poverty and death so that in a hundred years the children of the current billionaire class might have slightly better weather.

We're giving up modern civilization right now, for a billionaire's tax cut, and you think you're getting a sweetheart deal.

Funny how china isn't giving up modern civilization. Instead they're profiting from the new energy economy which they'll lead. We could have lead it and profited from it but your party of morons prevented that.

How many coal fired electrical plants does China install every year?
