There have been changes in the weather:
- heavier rain than usual in many places
- increases in the intensity and duration of tropical storms and cyclones
- more recent heat waves
- increase in lands suffering drought
- sea levels rising
There have been Glacier retreat and disappearance
- mountain glaciers and snow cover have decreased in both northern and southern hemispheres
- some of the sea level rise is attributable to this
There have been changes in the Oceans:
- Increased levels of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the air has caused the oceans to become more acidic
- as the oceans warm they become less able to absorb CO2
- as the oceans warm the water expands, causing some sea level rise
