# Temperature Records on The No Agenda Show Temperature Records comes up in 5 chapters across 5 episodes of The No Agenda Show, from January 2015 to August 2024. - **Chapters:** 5 - **Episodes:** 5 - **Discussed:** January 2015 – August 2024 - **Related topics:** [Climate Change](https://search.noagendashow.net/topic/climate-change.md), [Ipcc](https://search.noagendashow.net/topic/ipcc.md), [Andrew Orlowski](https://search.noagendashow.net/topic/andrew-orlowski.md), [Cru](https://search.noagendashow.net/topic/cru.md), [East Anglia](https://search.noagendashow.net/topic/east-anglia.md), [Freedom Of Information](https://search.noagendashow.net/topic/freedom-of-information.md), [Global Warming](https://search.noagendashow.net/topic/global-warming.md), [Heat Waves](https://search.noagendashow.net/topic/heat-waves.md), [Hockey Stick Graph](https://search.noagendashow.net/topic/hockey-stick-graph.md), [Mediterranean](https://search.noagendashow.net/topic/mediterranean.md) ## Chapters 1–5 of 5 ### Mediterranean Heat Record, Climate Change Rhetoric - **Episode:** [1687: Authentified](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/1687-authentified.md) - **Published:** 2024-08-18 - **Time:** 2:37:19–2:40:30 - **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/1687-authentified/chapter/mediterranean-heat-record-climate-change-rhetoric.md The Mediterranean Sea reportedly hit a record median surface temperature of 28.9 degrees Celsius, just 0.2 degrees higher than the previous year. The hosts mock the media's insistence that beachgoers could "sense" this fractional difference and criticize the tendency to attribute every minor event or personal inconvenience to "climate change."

In response to Freedom of Information requests, the unit claimed it only possesses "homogenized" or manipulated data because it lacked storage resources in the 1980s. The hosts highlight this as a major blow to the credibility of the scientific consensus on warming.

The graph became an iconic tool for the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) to argue that human industry caused unprecedented warming starting in the 1880s. Skeptics claim the data was manufactured to justify political goals rather than reflect accurate historical temperature variations.

Critics point out that the institute lowered temperature readings from 100 years ago by two degrees Celsius, effectively changing the baseline for what constitutes a heat wave. The hosts discuss the historical accuracy of mercury thermometers compared to modern electronic sensors.

They analyze a slide from a NOAA and NASA webinar showing that the probability of 2014 being the warmest year was only 48% for NOAA and 38% for NASA. They argue that the media and the President presented these uncertain probabilities as definitive scientific facts.
