Vital climate signs sounding alarms shows latest planetary report
The imprint of human-induced climate change is evident in the 2024 State of the Global Climate Report from the World Meteorological Organization.
www.metoffice.gov.ukThe Air shield of our planet is a layer of gases encasing the planet, reaching above 10,000 km in altitude, with major divisions troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere. It is mainly nitrogen and oxygen, with argon, carbon dioxide, and trace gases, and it shields life from solar radiation while enabling weather and climate processes; the ozone in the stratosphere absorbs harmful UV rays for protection against UV. Recent climate reports show CO2 rising, the record levels in hundreds of millennia, and ongoing increases in global temperatures and ocean heat content, alongside reductions in polar ice.
