    (CNN)Looks like Earth is already halfway to the danger zone.

    Less than two weeks before a crucial global climate summit in Paris kicks off, NOAA, NASA and other global temperature monitors released data showing that the planet is halfway to two degrees of warming, the much publicized limit of "controllable" climate change.

    Global data from NOAA released Thursday shows that the average temperature across the entire planet for the month of October was a record shattering 0.98 degrees Celsius (1.76 degrees Fahrenheit) warmer than average for the month of October -- making it the highest average temperature reached compared to normal in Earth's historical record.

    The list of superlatives for the month is staggering:

    -- the warmest October ever observed (in 136 years of NOAA records),

    -- the warmest month ever compared to average (out of 1,630 months),

    -- the sixth consecutive month breaking a global temperature record, and

    -- seven of the 10 warmest months have occurred in 2015.

    The NOAA data is backed up by similar data sets maintained by NASA and the Japan Meteorological Agency, which also ranked October as the hottest month on record compared to average. All of this virtually guarantees that 2015 will rank as the warmest year overall, breaking the record that was set just last year.

    Well, this definitely seals it. We shouldn't expend the carbon-based energy to move 10,000 people halfway around the planet and put them into an energy-gluttonous society like ours.

    If true and man made climate change is happening, every October from now on will be the warmest ever recorded until we all melt on Halloween 2050.

    That was my first reaction and then I started thinking about how much paper I actually use during the year anymore. All of my bills are delivered electronically, I rarely print anything on a computer anymore, I usually decline receipts.

    About the only thing I do that uses a lot of paper these days is the ongoing construction of a massive 30 foot tall, paper maché, Paul Bunyan I'm building in my back yard ...

    You appear to have a gross misconception of how climate science is actually conducted. Are there some shenanigans with some scientists? Possibly. But by and large people are driven to get it right.

    How many thermometers even existed 136 years ago? How accurate were they? How many people recorded the temperatures "all over the world?" Was every single one of them meticulous enough to capture exactly the right numbers in exactly the right places at exactly the right times?

    If you start will limited and/or inaccurate numbers, your conclusions are necessarily flawed.

    There's money in everything - therefore everything is corrupt?
