Is the Earth Warming Faster than Expected?
• Ice melting into the oceans, which warms surface seawater, leading to more melting.
• Thawing of permafrost, which releases carbon dioxide and methane into the atmosphere, raising the air temperature and melting more permafrost.
• Glaciers breaking up and falling into the sea, which lessens the amount of sunlight reflected into space, thereby heating the atmosphere and further degrading glaciers.
