The environment has been in danger for over 30 years, but a new study finds that we should be even more concerned than usual.
Earth is currently experiencing its worst energy imbalance yet. A new report filed by the World Meteorological Organisation (WMO) finds that the temperature of the atmosphere has reached scorching heights. This subsequently has a major effect on the ocean and will consequently see a surge in breakouts of extreme weather conditions. This surge will threaten food supplies and safety resources on a global level.
WMO shared:
“The Earth’s climate is more out of balance than at any time in observed history, as greenhouse gas concentrations drive continued warming of the atmosphere and ocean and melting of ice, according to the World Meteorological Organization (WMO). These rapid and large-scale changes have occurred within a few decades but will have harmful repercussions for hundreds – and potentially thousands – of years.”
How long has Earth been in a climate crisis?
In 2024, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) issued a concerning statement about the conditions of the Earth. It claimed that at the time, the drastic increase in temperatures hadn’t been seen in the past 10,000 years. And that the rate it has changed since the 20th century is “unprecedented.” Of course, Earth’s climate is always due to change with each passing decade. But by 2024, it was in a state of true crisis.
