According to the United States of America’s National Aeronautics and Space Administration in one of its Global Climate Change, Vital Signs of the planet report claimed that the planet’s average surface temperature has risen to about 2.12 degrees Fahrenheit since the late 19th century…with the seven most recent years being the warmest. The years 2016 and 2020 are tied for the warmest year on record.’ Probably 2021 and 2022 may end up making the record if nothing is done to contain the situation.
The report continued and revealed that the Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets have reduced in mass as its data on Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment showed. Greenland alone, it said, lost an average of 279 billion tons of ice per year between 1993 and 2019, while Antarctica lost about 148 billion tons of ice per year.
