You guys better be working on some real good canon divergent fics because after March 3rd I WILL be eating up every single ‘Hange Is Alive and Well And Actually Married To Levi’ content on the internet. I’ll search every fluff tag on AO3, gobble up every sweet art of my science blorbo and reread every line of meta explaining how Hange actually survived the rumbling and is chill living in the forest. No Hange Zoë happy ending shall escape me. No canon shall burst my dellusion bubble MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Why Isn’t Every Year the Warmest Year on Record?

This just in: 2022 effectively tied for the fifth warmest year since 1880, when our record starts. Here at NASA, we work with our partners at NOAA to track temperatures across Earth’s entire surface, to keep a global record of how our planet is changing.

Overall, Earth is getting hotter.

The warming comes directly from human activities – specifically, the release of greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide from burning fossil fuels. We started burning fossil fuels in earnest during the Industrial Revolution. Activities like driving cars and operating factories continue to release greenhouse gases into our atmosphere, where they trap heat in the atmosphere.

So…if we’re causing Earth to warm, why isn’t every year the hottest year on record?

As 2022 shows, the current global warming isn’t uniform. Every single year isn’t necessarily warmer than every previous year, but it is generally warmer than most of the preceding years. There’s a warming trend.

Earth is a really complex system, with various climate patterns, solar activity, and events like volcanic eruptions that can tip things slightly warmer or cooler.

Climate Patterns

While 2021 and 2022 continued a global trend of warming, they were both a little cooler than 2020, largely because of a natural phenomenon known as La Niña.

La Niña is one third of a climate phenomenon called El Niño Southern Oscillation, also known as ENSO, which can have significant effects around the globe. During La Niña years, ocean temperatures in the central and eastern Pacific Ocean cool off slightly. La Niña’s twin, El Niño brings warmer temperatures to the central and eastern Pacific. Neutral years bring ocean temperatures in the region closer to the average.

El Niño and La Niña affect more than ocean temperatures – they can bring changes to rainfall patterns, hurricane frequency, and global average temperature.

We’ve been in a La Niña mode the last three, which has slightly cooled global temperatures. That’s one big reason 2021 and 2022 were cooler than 2020 – which was an El Niño year.

Overall warming is still happening. Current El Niño years are warmer than previous El Niño years, and the same goes for La Niña years. In fact, enough overall warming has occurred that most current La Niña years are warmer than most previous El Niño years. This year was the warmest La Niña year on record.

Solar Activity

Our Sun cycles through periods of more and less activity, on a schedule of about every 11 years. Here on Earth, we might receive slightly less energy — heat — from the Sun during quieter periods and slightly more during active periods.

At NASA, we work with NOAA to track the solar cycle. We kicked off a new one – Solar Cycle 25 – after solar minimum in December 2019. Since then, solar activity has been slightly ramping up.

Because we closely track solar activity, we know that over the past several decades, solar activity hasn't been on the rise, while greenhouse gases have. More importantly, the "fingerprints" we see on the climate, including temperature changes in the upper atmosphere, don't fit the what we'd expect from solar-caused warming. Rather they look like what we expect from increased greenhouse warming, verifying a prediction made decades ago by NASA.

Volcanic Eruptions

Throughout history, volcanoes have driven major shifts in Earth’s climate. Large eruptions can release water vapor — a greenhouse gas like carbon dioxide — which traps additional warmth within our atmosphere.

On the flip side, eruptions that loft lots of ash and soot into the atmosphere can temporarily cool the climate slightly, by reflecting some sunlight back into space.

Like solar activity, we can monitor volcanic eruptions and tease out their effect on variations in our global temperature.

At the End of the Day, It’s Us

Our satellites, airborne missions, and measurements from the ground give us a comprehensive picture of what’s happening on Earth every day. We also have computer models that can skillfully recreate Earth’s climate.

By combining the two, we can see what would happen to global temperature if all the changes were caused by natural forces, like volcanic eruptions or ENSO. By looking at the fingerprints each of these climate drivers leave in our models, it’s perfectly clear: The current global warming we’re experiencing is caused by humans.

Literally every movie adaptation ever: Henry Jeckyll is just a poor victim of his evil side Mr Hyde!

The Actual Book: Henry Jeckyll is a weird fuck who turned himself into a monster man because he wanted to indulge in doing horrible things without fear of getting caught

Hange: you are the love of my life and I would do anything, within reason, to make you happy

Levi: I would be happy if you ate, stay hydrated and got a reasonable amount of sleep.

Hange: I said within reason, Levi.

Actors Hange and Zeke as an ex-couple. So, Actor Levi, Hange's currently boyfriend, didn't even have to act disgusted with Zeke lmao.

"In a room as dark and cold as was his heart, pale moonlight was the only source of light. It shone weakly, feebly, but Levi welcomed it, as much as he welcomed a stiff and heavy palm on top of his."

"Hange."

"That hand, it moved, travelled upwards, seized Levi's jaw, cupped it firmly but tenderly. He almost leaned into it. If not for that stupid pride that still waged war inside of him, he'd-"

"Hange." The voice grew more insistent, far less patient. So very soon a hand appeared in front of the screen, obscuring Hange's vision. She waved it off with a growing smile, and continued, before Levi could pull out something else. "He'd surrender, he'd give in to this man, the beast he'd sworn to kill. But there, in the darkness, with no one but Zeke to witness his downfall, he was ready, oh so ready, to give in to his most sacred urges."

"Four-eyes!"

Levi tried to take away her phone, but Hange jumped back, evading him at the very last minute. She raised her phone higher, way out of his reach. "Shh... we're getting to the good part," she lowered her voice, changed it to a seductive whisper and carried on, savoring every click of tongue that came from her boyfriend. "Levi felt lips hover over his ear, he felt the tickle of a beard. It was a strange feeling, unfamiliar, yet exciting all the same. That slight tickle made him wonder - just how good that beard would feel between his thighs."

"Yep, and that's enough!" Levi snatched her phone away, just before Hange got the actual good parts.

"Hey!" she gasped. "I was reading!"

"You were reading porn." Levi said levelly. "About me and Zeke. In front of me."

"It's not just porn!" Hange disagreed heartily. "The story's flow is excellent! And the descriptions are quite interesting, if a bit exaggerated..."

"Hange."

"Only when it concerns Zeke," Hange grinned. "The descriptions of your assets, my dear, are clearly understated."

"Hange."

"Oh and you should have seen fanarts! The poses are... wow, I don't think some of them can actually be recreated."

"Four-eyes." That tone voice, that clear edge to it and the way Levi firmly squeezed the bridge of his nose could only mean one thing - he was on his limit. Hange smiled expectantly. "Why are you even looking this up? And why are you sharing this delightful information with me?"

"I thought you'd be interested in it too. You know, it's actually fascinating that fans of the show perceive the relationship between your and Zeke's characters in that way, when in reality-

"I hate his fucking guts?"

"Well..." Hange plopped down on a couch, nuzzling into the crook of Levi's neck. "Something like that, yeah. I mean, I still don't really understand why you hate him so much, honestly, he's not so-"

Levi cut her off, simply, softly, by pressing a finger to her lips. "You were dating him. And in the end, he hurt you. That's enough reason for me to hate him."

"Oh." Hange fell quiet for a moment, thinking Levi's words through, absorbing them, letting them settle inside her heart. Those words- they were warm, they brought light with them, they made her feel like she was wrapped up in a blanket, soft and cozy and reliable; that's exactly how Levi's love always made her feel. She brushed her lips against his jaw, cuddled closer to him. "Want to watch some more porn with Zeke? I can find something where he has little dick, or we can-"

Levi gave her a look - heavy, ardent and full of promise. It made her shiver, made her feel - exactly like Levi from that story felt. Those authors were really onto something. "Or," he murmured and leaned in for a kiss.

Hange met him halfway, already wearing a smile. Their lips touched, caressed one another and repeated the same motion only twice, before they started shredding each other's clothes.

After all, best porn was the one they've made themselves.

It feels strange to call Hange his lover.

It is strange, because Hange- they are so many more things, they're his friend and a shoulder to cry on and a crutch to lean on if ever needs one. They're his laughter in the dead of the night, they're his smile in the early morning, they're his warmth during cold, winter evenings. They're a cause for his fear and brief bits of sadness, they're his happiness. They're his everything, not just a lover.
