Are you looking for a calendar filled with hot models for your office or man cave? Consider climate models — they’re hot and getting hotter. And in the 2014 Climate Models calendar, they’re represented by climate scientists wearing their fanciest party duds. Steamy!

I was kind of hoping this calendar would literally be climate models (you know, like … meet Miss November, the hockey-stick graph! Her turn-offs include unfounded skepticism and email hacking!). But dressed-up climate scientists is a pretty good alternative. (Naked climate scientists would be pushing it.)

The calendar’s not available for purchase yet, but starting next week you’ll have a chance to get a copy by supporting the Kickstarter. No word on whether you’ll get a refund if the world ends in climate cataclysm before 2014 is over.
