While A Marine Heatwave Threatens The West Coast, A New United Nations Report Documents Effects of Climate Change On The Ocean

Share to twitterFRENCH POLYNESIA - SOCIETY ARCHIPELAGO - MAY 09: A view of major bleaching on the coral reefs of the Society Islands on May 9, 2019 in Moorea, French Polynesia. Major bleaching is currently occurring on the coral reefs of the Society Islands in earlier today, a 1170-page report that summarizes the effects of climate change on ocean habitats and the coastal economies they support as well as potential solutions.

In addition to describing how warming from increased greenhouse gas emissions has caused glaciers and ice sheets to melt, the report determined that the loss of polar ice sheets has been the primary driver of sea level rise since the IPCC’s previous assessment in 2013. The report also mentioned a series of consequences related to the oceans’ absorption of heat and carbon dioxide. The oceans have absorbed 90 percent of the excess heat and one-third of the carbon dioxide that humans have produced in the past 40-50 years. This has caused the oceans to become warmer while losing oxygen and increasing in acidity.

The IPCC report, which states that 90 percent of marine heatwaves can now be attributed to climate change, was released nearly two weeks afterthat sat alongside the California coast from 2014-2016 may be re-emerging. Warm seawater is known for increasing the intensity of tropical storms and causing coral reefs to bleach, but the west coast will likely have a different set of challenges.

You always seem to mention arctic ice, but never antarctic ice. Wonder why that is... 🤔

Time to Unfollow

WHAT IF, as of Jan 1 EVERYTHING worldwide was solar: no oil, coal,gas.. net result? Not good for politicians, lobbyists, energy workers , right, SO.. pols do nothing . ClimateChange

You already know this is crap when the depiction of carbon dioxide is a nuclear plant giving off steam.

How about the thousands of real climatologists who wrote to the UN IPCC telling them to stop the misinformation campaign of lies and fear Mongering. How about NASA's statement:'The earth is cooling, not warming' yet we are to believe politicians? Ha!

There are so many factors that facilitates this climate change that we ain't talking about yet. These factors make the chances of curtailing the climatic change so narrow. One of them is Space exploration through the use of rockets has its negative effects on the ozone layer..

Do you consider climate change a hoax?

Fake research and fake conclusions!

The same effects that there have always been because the climate has always changed

Forbes have you read NASA report on Climate Change? Because according to NASA man has very little to do with Climate Change. SunSpots, Volcanos, Asteroids, Earthquakes, changes in earth's rotational orbit controls Climate Change. No emergency!
