The changes to Earth’s natural patterns reveal an
interconnected web of ecological systems that are undergoing
profound changes beyond what many researchers have predicted.
Scientists say the culprit is clear: Ever since the Industrial
Revolution, the relentless burning of fossil fuels like coal, oil,
and gas has been adding heat-trapping gases to the atmosphere,
leading to a sharp rise in global temperatures. The hottest year in
recorded history was 2024, and each of the 10 warmest years on
record have come in the past decade.
Since 1997, when nations agreed to limit planet-warming
gases as part of the landmark Kyoto Protocol, humanity has
released more greenhouse gases than in all prior history. The
temperature rise associated with the growing volume of heattrapping gas has kicked in, and it is continuing to rise. And at the
same time, the ability of the planet’s natural systems to absorb
planet-warming gases like carbon dioxide appears to be
diminishing.
