My interpretation of this article: Scientists have no reliable temperature data history and thus there is no way to know whether or not the planet is warming. Am I wrong?https://twitter.com/JSegor/status/1080471267982008321 …

The discussion is whether it's normal, not normal, indicative of a trend or not. Keep in mind the people who says it's a trend also says we're at risk of a see rises in meters. Now go fetch some actual measurement from stations. It's ok to scratch your head.

Skepticism about the causes and nature of coral bleaching as presented in the media.
-
Not skepticism in the traditional (informed) sense, afaik. Coral bleaching is caused by elevated ocean temp. Heat stress bleaching is lab reproducible, and it's pretty easy to map bleaching severity to prolonged elevated temperature above local threshold. http://cnmicoralreef.com/uploads/cnmi/Images%20and%20documents%20for%20individual%20pages/Heron%20et%20al_2016_Validation%20of%20Reef-Scale%20Thermal%20Stress%20Satellie%20Products%20for%20Coral%20Bleaching%20Monitoring_Remote%20Sensing.pdf …pic.twitter.com/nqagyw4X1Y

Because taking coral out of the ocean putting them in tanks and messing around with them didn’t traumatize them at all, it was the temperature change.

You think that it is all a coincidence – heat stress reproducible in labs, consistent with understanding of the biology of coral respiration, and the fact that bleaching in the wild exactly lines up with prolonged elevated ocean temp above local thresholds?pic.twitter.com/L06OMQGMeF

And which would those be? "...significant variation in the number of fish species, total fish abundance and functional diversity among different fish communities. Six months after the bleaching event, however, this variation was almost entirely lost"https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2018/04/180405150053.htm …

There is *skepticism*, driven by evidence-based concerns and informed critical questioning, or there is just resistance to observed facts (as we've seen with the greenhouse effect etc.), based on strong desires for it not to be true or "coral have been around a long time" etc.?pic.twitter.com/eRqkIeyJV9

There is no sane skepticism about the fact that coral bleaching happening more often and more severely. Half the corals on the Great Barrier Reef died in 2016-17. You write a funny cartoon so you can lampoon the death of ecosystems and it is supposed to be funny or insightful?
