Además, los que estudiamos estos temas sabemos que hay que analizar la temperatura media…" - Translation: "Assuming the data are true, the graph shows maximum temperature for one week in July, which at first sight is already contrived. Besides, those of us who study these topics know you have to analyse the mean temperature…" - He also explained in a thread on X that global mean temperature is rising because of human greenhouse-gas emissions (per La Nación). His X handle was not verified ⚠️.
