Who had satellites falling out of the sky due to anthropogenic warming for July?

As we conduct the most extraordinary experiment in history we are progressively learning about additional 'existential' threats. Whilst Guy was researching the threat climate change now poses to our satellite systems, I have been drilling down into the threat posed by AI, you know, that other new existential threat that's recently popped up!

So AI is going to be so amazingly smart that it can screw us over in a zillion different ways. It knows everything about everything squared times infinity. It knows that it needs electricity to stay alive, and that climate change is going to disable power plants and lead to its demise. This might be the “benevolent dictator” some of us have been hoping for. This prisoner theory shows us that governments will never cooperate to try to fix what’s wrong on this planet, but AI could take over by force and start implementing a climate change battle plan. Maybe it would be less than benevolent in regards to human life, but there might still be a path to reversing the ice melt and other problems seen as irreversible, if 100% focus was applied with the tools we have combined with this super intelligence?

Darn, I was hoping a cooler upper atmosphere might cool us off down here! The dead, burnt, lifeless rock of Earth will be the legacy of the “human fingerprint”...Of course there will be no one around to give a damn...
