Challenges
Global warming is undeniable. Over the last 70 years, there have been unprecedented changes in our climate; oceans and atmosphere have warmed, ice and snow have melted, and the sea level has risen. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate (IPCC) has issued multiple dire warnings recently that our current emission plans are still not enough to divert the effects of climate change, but we have some limited time left to act.
