The Federation of Pangaea is maintaining its own ground temperature records, to independently verify Climate Change. It currently measures temperatures in the Laurentians area, in Quebec, Canada, and the records are corroborated by local weather stations.
Greenhouse gases work by trapping heat. Now, to measure greenhouse gases is tricky work; the NOAA explains how it samples the air, and must employ "careful calibration" in measuring multiple gases due to phase and electromagnetic resonance similarities. However, as greenhouse gases trap heat, there is another way to measure their combined concentration: nightside heat retention.
The Moon has no greenhouse gases in its atmosphere. In fact it has extremely little of any atmospheres to begin with. As a result, the day side of the Moon cooks up under the Sun, and temperatures in the day may reach up to 120 degrees Celsius. However, during the night, because of the lack of any heat-trapping gases, temperatures then drop well below freezing, down to -170 degrees Celsius.
On the other hand, Venus is renowned for its thick, lush CO2 atmosphere. Its temperature during the day is 460 degrees Celsius, and thanks to the abundance of greenhouse gases, this temperature remains pretty much constant even throughout the nightside.
Therefore it can be demonstrated that there exists a much simpler way to measure the concentration of greenhouse gases as a whole. Quite simply, one needs simply to measure the average heat retention between the dayside of a point and its associated nightside. Unlike NOAA's method, nightside heat loss measurements be carried out by nearly anyone, anywhere on the globe, and therefore a much larger amount of independent people can verify the authorities' claims, which is in accordance with the scientific method.
The Federation of Pangaea just completed a full year worth of temperature records. The complete records span over 370 entries, so I will spare you the boredom (I can however provide you with the link if you wish to look at the raw data). I nevertheless wish to share our findings.
- From 8 May 2021 to 7 May 2022 inclusively, the local day high averaged 10.311 degrees Celsius.
- From 8 May 2021 to 7 May 2022 inclusively, the local night low averaged 1.585 degrees Celsius.
- From 8 May 2021 to 7 May 2022 inclusively, the local nightside heat loss averaged -8.688 degrees Celsius.

Now, our records are only 5 days into our second year. It is much too soon to draw definite conclusions. However I wish to present our preliminary results.
- From 8 May 2021 to 12 May 2021 inclusively, the local day high averaged 16.4 degrees Celsius.
- From 8 May 2021 to 12 May 2022 inclusively, the local night low averaged 3.4 degrees Celsius.
- From 8 May 2021 to 12 May 2022 inclusively, the local nightside heat loss averaged -13 degrees Celsius.
Next are some preliminary results for this year:
- From 8 May 2022 to 12 May 2022 inclusively, the local day high averaged 26.5 degrees Celsius.
- From 8 May 2022 to 12 May 2022 inclusively, the local night low averaged 6.2 degrees Celsius.
- From 8 May 2022 to 12 May 2022 inclusively, the local nightside heat loss averaged -21 degrees Celsius.
We have just experienced a heat wave that seems to confirm Global Warming, as the average temperatures are nearly 10 degrees above the 2021 reference point.
However the average nightside temperature is less than 3 degrees above the 2021 reference point.
And more shocking is the nightside heat retention, which has dropped a whopping 16 degrees below the 2021 reference point.
Are we witnessing a situation where we are actually losing heat retention? Could those preliminary results indicate that greenhouse gases are actually decreasing, steadily bringing us closer to a Moon situation, where the Sun scorches the surface during the day, and then everything drops well below freezing point during the night?
It is much too soon to tell with certainty. What is certain however is that the recent nightside heat loss we have recorded is also an all-time record since 8 May 2021, with a nightside heat loss as large as 20 degrees on 9 May 2022.
If we discover that this heat loss trend continues, then there will be serious reasons for concerns. A theoretical runaway heat loss trend of only 1.28 degrees per year would have catastrophic effects by the end of 2100; resulting in daily averages of +60 degrees in the afternoon, and in nights dropping down below -40 degrees. Those extrapolated figures are calculated for Quebec up north; which suggests even more intense daily weather for states that are south of Quebec/Maine, especially for those with a continental climate. Of course, however, actual climate is much more complex than just greenhouse gases, and other factors will come into play by then, such as the Sun's own variable output, which has increased by 20% since prehistoric times. Additionally, an increase in dayside temperatures will increase water evaporation rates, and water vapor itself acts as a greenhouse gas.
