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 Atmospheric layers is a layer of gases surrounding Earth, 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 driving weather and climate dynamics; the stratospheric ozone absorbs UV radiation to protect living beings. Recent climate reports highlight rising atmospheric CO2 concentrations, the highest in hundreds of thousands of years, and ongoing increases in global temperatures and ocean heat content, alongside shrinking Arctic and Antarctic ice extents.
