Latest report from WMO says first decade of century was hottest, wettest on record with more to come
- Jon Queally, staff writer
The rate of rising oceans has doubled, the heat temperatures for both
land and water are on the rise, the melting of the Arctic ice is
speeding up, and both the weather extremes the world is experiencing and
the overall global warming trends are simply 'unprecedented.'
That's the assessment contained in the World Meteorological Organization's latest report,
The Global Climate 2001-2010, A Decade of Climate Extremes,
which examined the first decade of the 21st century. The report,
released Wednesday, arrived with this warning: we better get ready for
more.
