"Among the issues touched on in this new video featuring concise comments by eight scientists representing various climate research organizations:
- the accelerated state of permafrost degradation in Alaska;
- concentrations of carbon dioxide and methane and changes in the Arctic “much faster” than has been predicted by models;
- rapid melting of the Greenland ice sheet in 2012;
- periodic cool periods resulting from volcanic eruptions, but seen in the overall context of persistent greenhouse gas warming;
- a lesson to be learned from “Superstorm Sandy”: the vulnerability of human beings to climate changes still of a relatively modest scale given projections for the future;
- water vapor and upper-ocean heat content;
- potential sea-level rise of more than 1 meter by the end of the current century; and
the multiple channels of evidence pointing to the warming of our climate and the causes of it."
