clch - UK temps timeline, 1880 to 2020
03 Aug 2021 |
|
Although there has been a lot of variation between the mean temperature for individual years, there has been an overall increase between c1880 and 2020, even with the slight drop in the 1950s. One of the lowest appears to be c1962/3 which I remember as being a particularly hard and long winter.
.
So, what changed ... In the 1950s, private car ownership began expanding. Home central heating started being installed in new houses, and there was a baby / housing boom. Industry, even the traditional heavy users of coal, began a period of boom - ever increasing production. More nations became industrialised, greater international trade, all of the post WW2 "brave new world" ...
.
All these changes would have increased carbon dioxide emissions, and other waste materials polluting the atmosphere and the environment on top of, and amplifying the natural process of warming up after a glacial episode.
What was, initially referred to as the "Greenhouse affect" then "global warming" and now "climate change emergency".
