10 July

I don’t think it’s widely understood just how much energy human-induced climate change has added to the oceans (which are now releasing it back into the atmosphere, they’re full). In the past 150 years the heat added to the oceans by carbon pollution is the equivalent of 7 BILLION atomic bombs. Right now, every SECOND another 6-8 atomic bombs of heat energy is being added to the oceans. The huge weather events we’re seeing are that energy starting to be released. And this is just the entree, it gets much, much worse from here.
