Global warming appears to have shifted into a faster gear. After removing the effects of El Niño, volcanic eruptions, and solar cycles, researchers found that the planet has warmed at roughly 0.35°C per decade over the past ten years, compared with just under 0.2°C per decade from 1970 to 2015. The acceleration, which becomes visible around 2013 to 2015, appeared across five major global temperature datasets with more than 98% statistical certainty.
Scientists have warned us since the 80s - I can tell you that, I was there.
Yup, I was a small kid when my dad told me about it and he wasn’t even a scientist, just a teacher. We’ve known for a long time. Ignorance is no excuse.
