Here are a few things that mark this report out from previous versions that relate to issues we’ve discussed here before: Extreme events are increasingly connected to climate (duh!) Extremes : Back in 2012, the literature assessed by AR5 connecting changes in extremes to climate change was scant. Figure SPM 8.

Picture how a radiator heats a home. Water is heated by a boiler, and the hot water circulates through pipes and radiators in the house. The radiators warm up and heat the air in the room. The radiators are, in fact, cooling down, but their stored heat is still warming the air in the room.

Some of the impacts of climate change are playing out faster and with a greater magnitude than we predicted.”. While we still have those things, the facts show that climate change has transformed the months of May through October into what we are calling the Danger Season.

For example, Antarctica acts to cool our planet by reflecting solar radiation back to space by virtue of the brightness of its snow surface. The danger is that the Antarctic sea ice is starting to behave like the Arctic, with sustained loss of ocean cover and consequent absorption of solar radiation.

But since it became clear that human actions are damaging the environment and changing the climate, it has become much more prominent nationally and internationally with most government departments in most countries having responsibilities to mitigate or prepare for climate change scenario.
