Arctic Ice-Free By 2030

“Arctic sea ice, a critical component of Earth’s climate system, is on the brink of witnessing its first-ever ice-free day before 2030. As highlighted in a study leveraging advanced CMIP6 climate models, this pivotal transition is not a distant possibility but a looming reality. The researchers’ focus on daily projections has uncovered that internal climate variability, rather than emissions scenarios alone, could drive this dramatic event. Rapid ice loss events during late summer are key triggers with profound implications for ecosystems, weather patterns, and climate feedback systems, underscoring the urgent need for global climate action. “

Earth To Become Too Hot For Humans

“If greenhouse gas emissions continue unabated, land temperatures will rise so substantially that large areas of Earth will become inhabitable. That’s according to new research by an international team of scientists, published May 26, 2020, in the peer-reviewed journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.

Correspondingly, according to this new research, the area of Earth’s land surface occupied by inhospitably hot temperatures greater than 84 degrees F (29 degrees C) on average can be expected to rise from a current level of 0.8% today to 19% in 2070.”
