Study Finds Acceleration in Global Warming Since 2015
A recent study by the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research found that global warming has accelerated since around 2015. After accounting for natural factors like El Nino and volcanic activity, researchers observed that the planet's temperature has risen approximately 0.35°C per decade over the past ten years, compared to just under 0.2°C per decade from 1970 to 2015. This acceleration is supported by five major global temperature datasets with over 98% statistical certainty, marking the fastest warming rate since records began in 1880.
