As greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide and methane cause the earth to warm, so the oceans are warming too. The ice caps are melting and sea levels are starting to rise.
But what's worrying scientists is the extent to which our oceans are warming: analysis by the BBC has found that water temperatures around the world have broken records every single day over the past year.
Newshour spoke to Dr Lisa Beal - Professor of Ocean Sciences at the University of Miami - who was taken aback by the news.

I don't like commenting on things that have such Political baggage to carry. But I read the good Colonel's comment and felt I had to respond. There may be some limited wiggle room for thinking about how much Human activity is impacting Climate Change, but there is none for the Science of it actually changing. I would like to address this simple observation for those who choose to think it isn't any concern.
The US Military has done its own studies, and considers "Climate Change" a National Security Issue. Already reports have shown that most of our Coastal Bases could be lost within thirty to fifty years. Norfolk Naval Base is already planning and adapting for how they think 2040 will look. So is Jacksonville. And they already are trying to figure out how to deal with climate Migration - which is already happening. In their Reports they suggest that 4o to 50 Million people may be on the March (within our own borders) within two decades. These people are not Liberals, Eco Freaks, or Republicans, they are analysis's looking at the Data and trying to develop strategies to cope with those scenarios. Remember the weather you see outside every day is not Climate change...it is the weather. Think of it like walking a dog. You are on a route, but the dog wanders off and sniffs bushes here, wanders to the other side to sniff a tree, and at any moment he might turn a different direction. But you are holding the leash, and continue on your path, no matter what he might be doing at any given moment. Climate change is the dog walker, weather is the dog.
And yes, I still run my AC, eat steak, and fly, because I am lazy. But I am not unaware that my behavior might have to change drastically. I am more careful with water, and sadly have to filter it too. And I keep my AC at one setting. Maybe little things will help...but maybe not. The brainiacs are my hope.

President Biden is also breaking federal law by forcing us to go electric by 2032.
82% of people want choice.
This could also help President Biden lose in November, 2024.

China is building six times more new coal plants than other countries, report finds
China permitted the equivalent of two new coal plants a week last year according to a new report. The country is also rapidly expanding its renewable energy.
