I don’t they intended to dismiss climate change, I think they were just taking exception to the use of the word “literally” with “the world” when it’s technically just far too much of the Northern Hemisphere across multiple continents. Not necessarily helpful, but at least it’s not climate change denial?
It’s wrong anyway because the temperatures are high for the current time of year. Even the winter temps.
So with the northern hemisphere that means that they are higher than they’ve ever been before in the Southern hemisphere it just means they’re higher the winter then they’ve ever been before but they’re still high.

So it’s a confusing and non relevant distinction.
