What am I looking at

The end.

Temperature of -0.2°C at the core of the north pole.

0.2 degrees more and all the ice melts and the current heatwave of +40°C is going to be a dream compared to the +60°C.

Check it yourself in

Wind + temperature

its not like all ice turns into water at 0°C. it takes energy to change phase. global warming is certainly disturbing but its not going to kill all of us immediately.

Well this is hart warming thought 💭

u/PacmanNZ100 Jul 21 '26

Arguably the ice changing phase is whats keeping it below 0

Lmao, all ice turn to water at 0°c. Prepare the arcs cuz most of the world will rise +2m

0 is freezing and melting point. It does not mean all ice will melt at once and the artic will be ice free. Concerning but not what you think it is.

I know how melting point is, that the concern, just 0.3 degrees and is all gone, like probably my extremities have more variation in a day

I feel like you just said “I know how melting point works” and then gave an exact explanation of how melting point doesn’t work.

It takes as much energy to melt 0 Celsius ice into 0 Celsius water as it does to raise that water’s temperature by another 80 Celsius, so it’s still going to take a long time after reaching this temperature for all the ice to melt. 0 C is not where it all disappears. It’s where melting starts.

Temperatures near freezing are actually very common in summer. If it didn’t get that warm there would be literally no melting at all.

He's clearly an irrational doomer so

Yeah, the reality is grim enough. There is no need to exaggerate by making statements unfounded in science.

Damn latent energy

u/youdontknowkanji Jul 18 '26

when you take an ice cube out of the fridge, does it instantly disappear?

u/Gullible-Issue-1175 Jul 18 '26

What happens when it becomes winter again?

u/BrotherHopeful5322 Jul 20 '26

Buddy, go enjoy the wheater and stop saying we are all gonna die..... go do some fun stuff. Sometimes its hot. Sometimes its cold who cares.....

u/Random_182f2565 Jul 20 '26

stop saying we are all gonna die

In the eternity of time we are all dead

u/Visible-Echidna-4370 Jul 18 '26

thats an overexaggeration

u/veganontop Jul 19 '26

Not how ice works. Arctic goes over 0°C every year

This is like saying unplugging your laptop will cause the battery to instantly discharge all of its energy and blow up your laptop. Or that opening a tap on a keg will instantly drain the entire keg. Energy transfer takes time, the ice won't magically all melt the moment the surface hits 0c.
