A few degrees difference on the color scale shows that the surface temperature of a cup of coffee isn't as homogenous as you'd think.
(Melo)dramaric thermal imaging of a cup of coffee:

Thank you for answering my question.
Rockström, Rahmstorf.. reference Hansen @leonsimons.com
and talk about moving the climate beyond 5°C
(even with zero emissions) as earth feedbacks dominate warming

Cherry-picking periods to show a pause is misleading. Some know this better than most.
Providing people with a false sense of security is dangerous.
The rate of heat uptake, CO₂ increase AND global warming have accelerated.
Japanese Meteorological Service (JMA) didn’t plan for this… To be fair neither have the other services.
That’s how off the charts these forecasts are.
Now we wait to see if they verify.

Thermal imaging is (melo)dramatic. But it's true that data centres are being built rapidly, and that means no time is set aside for figuring out how to do more than promise sustainable solutions (= lip service). Gas and diesel are the go-to energy sources. And lots of them.
