Climate mystery rule (sh.itjust.works)

Ok so apparently it is an article, not a bulletpoint of the other article as the ui would suggest. According to the article, some model made a while ago predicts we should only be at 1.3% warming this year and not 1.5%. That missing 0.2% is whats the mistery, so kind of misleading headline, especially if you put it in a place that doesn't make it look like an article at all. I only found out because I accidentally clicked on it.

We're at +1.5c this year rather than +1.3c because of normal weather cycles exhasutbating the effects of man made climate change. It's expected that 2025 will be back to +1.3c (or so). If it is you can expect climate deniers to be out in force, if it isn't you can expect climate doomers to be out in force.

Just because we are stuck in the worst timeline, it will split the difference at 1.4 and both sides will be raging.

Yes. I couldn't get close enough for predictive text to pick it up.
