Will Steffen, executive director of the Australian National University's Climate Change Institute, said one record-breaking month was not particularly significant in considering the impact of human activity on the climate, but it served as a reminder that the climate was warming.
''I think whether it's a record warm month or a record hot day, it does grab people's attention and I think that's a good thing,'' he said.
''But I think what needs to be done is some serious examination of the entire data record, of the underlying science, so that people get the understanding the scientific basis for human caused climate change is really strong. That's not debated.''

Well, if he checks HC he can see it is still debated at the bequest of fringe dwelling conspiracy theorists with invalid arguments backed by politically motivated misinformation.
