No, as I realized and clarified in a comment of mine down this thread a bit,

Climate records tumble,

Here, "climate records" is the object of the verb "tumble". That is, the thing that is "tumbling" are "climate records".

I agree it's a poor choice of wording for a headline but it is clear what is doing the tumbling on subsequent reads.
