Well, howdy there internet people, let's bea again. So today we are going to talk about

trees and what trees can tell us because they store information in a unique way and a lot of it I think people know but

maybe didn't think of applying it this way. We knew that last year was the hottest year on record. Now the problem with that

sentence is that those people who are committed to

believing that there isn't an issue, those people who are committed to convincing people that there isn't an issue

so they can continue to rake in giant profits, well they can always lean into

the fact that our records only go back so far.

We only have like 150 years or whatever.

I mean, how conclusive can it be?

So trees store, they store records about temperature. They don't mean to, but they do.

Most people know that rings inside of a tree.

It can give you the age. The distance apart between the

rings can tell you the temperature because trees grow more when it's warmer, therefore the rings are further apart.

So when it's warmer, the space between the rings is wider.

When it is colder, well, it's a skinny ring.

A study went through and compared tree rings.

And what they determined was that the Northern Hemisphere, the summer of 2023 was the hottest summer in 2000 years.

That's a pretty extensive period of time to be at the

pretty extensive period of time to be at the top of.
