Climate Changing Fast Now.

[klutedavid]

Climate change 'hitting harder and sooner' than forecast, warn scientists ahead of UN meeting.

The data, compiled by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO), says climate change is accelerating, with sea-levels rising, carbon dioxide levels increasing and ice sheets melting faster than ever before.

It highlighted that global temperatures have risen by 1.1 degrees Celsius since 1850, and have gone up 0.2 C between 2011 and 2015.

Sea levels have been rising by an average of 5 millimeters a year in the past five years, compared to 3.2 mm a year on average since 1993, with much of the rise attributed to melting glaciers and ice sheets.

The report flagged that Arctic summer sea ice has declined at a rate of 12 per cent per decade over the past 40 years, with the four lowest values between 2015 and 2019.

The amount of ice lost from the Antarctic ice sheet increased by a factor of six each year between 1979 and 2017, while glacier loss for 2015-19 is also the highest for any five-year period on record.

and have gone up 0.2 C between 2011 and 2015.

My eyes popped out of their sockets reading that.

I pray this means that Jesus will return soon, but I am skeptical.

I keep up to date with climate change information and the level of global climate change is accelerating.

It is scary news these days but is going to get much worse as we progress. We have already locked in a three or four degree change in the future with our past emissions.

If the governments continue to disregard deep and effective changes to CO2 emissions. The future climate will rise higher than a few degrees.

We can only hope that people wake up.... before it is too late!

Yeah the same thing happened to me and I am not sure why.

Type abc justin and you will see the link

With the global decline of Christianity, peoples love growing cold, and the climate starting to change rapidly. I don't think we have too much longer to wait.

Interesting article. It's alarming and also I think we're maybe just now seeing the effects of global warming perhaps.

As usual this is a photo cuz I can’t link

An alarming article and it will be interesting to see how the governments react to this news.

Get to work on your roof because you don't have a lot of time to reinforce your roof. May I suggest a steel roof as you may need some protection from larger hailstones.

Yep, this whole climate change fakeness is just about controlling people taking away freedom. The thing that should be alarming is that people are happily giving their freedom away to stupid stuff like this. Someday those people will happily give up the US Constitution because of this silliness

And, honestly, we can get rid of every plastic straw and bottle in the U.S. and it will have absolutely no effect on anything other than inconveniencing our citizens.

silliness is right , . Giving up the constitution? Really? How?

That is how the governments around the world have been treating climate change. They just ignore it and introduce slight changes to reduce CO2 emissions.

The world governments are in denial and I don't blame them for that. Reducing CO2 emissions on a large scale will drastically harm the economies of many countries.

You are not alone in your denial of the scientific news on climate change.

Ever seen the movie "Idiocracy"?

I have not. Don't go to many movies. I'll look it up now.
