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
