Alarming UN report blamed human activity for ‘unprecedented’ changes to the climate.
Humanity will experience more extreme weather in the coming years and it will suffer the consequences of rising sea levels and melting Arctic ice, scientists working from across the globe said in a crucial UN climate report.
The alarming report by a UN scientific panel, released on Monday, called changes to the climate “unprecedented”, added that it is “unequivocal” that humans are to blame, and laid out the case for drastic cuts to emissions in order to hold the global temperature to under the limits set by the 2015 Paris Agreement. ---Snip... “This report must sound a death knell for coal and fossil fuels, before they destroy our planet,” he said in a statement. “Countries should also end all new fossil fuel exploration and production and shift fossil fuel subsidies into renewable energy.” ---Snip For example, the last time the planet’s atmosphere was as warm as today, about 125,000 years ago, global sea levels were likely five to 10 metres (16 to 32 feet) higher – a level that would put many big coastal cities under water.
Three million years ago, when atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations matched today’s levels and temperatures were 2.5C (4.5F) to 4C (7.2F) higher, sea levels were up to 25 metres (82 feet) higher.

I'm sure the panel was chosen by people who believe in diversity rather than 'merit'. So yeah, they won't go after China or India but they're probably wrong on the 'science' too.
***The changed climate is destroying the earth /s ***
The same claim fifty years ago when they were promoting THE COMING ICE AGE hysteria.
Chicago was supposed to be under a mile of ice by now.
“Climate Change” is plan for world government friendly to world business Putin has been promised scraps from table by John “Heinz” Kerry.
I feel sad for the leftists suckered in by “Climate Change” because behind the curtain are the Joe Biden-Mitt Romney “Moderates” of politics making the world OK for business while putting out Left and Right messaging to distract.
As they always say....”Follow the money”.
The UN should stop wasting money on these stupid reports
I think Germany has the highest rates in Europe.
Oh, for GodâÂÂs sake. 50 years of failed doomsday prophecies and fools still believe this.
