In fact, at this critical moment for the climate and our ocean, there were literally more press credentials distributed than at any previous COP conference. Climate change is here and is bringing with it impacts like ocean acidification, sea level rise and dwindling sea ice. Never miss an update.

The physics-based models describe how energy flows through the atmosphere and ocean, as well as how the forces from different air masses push against each other. While temperatures provide a measure of the Earth’s climate, it is even better to use the global sea level , which provides a far more reliable measure.
