Original Note:
Satellites observe radiation, not temperature (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UAH_satellite_temperature_dataset). Derived temperatures, however, do show a warming trend: https://www.drroyspencer.com/2023/08/uah-global-temperature-update-for-july-2023-0-64-deg-c/ The claim there is a cooling trend seems to be based on cherry-picking, although it is possible the data have completely been made up - there is no link to the data source
