“Overall, the ocean has absorbed an astonishing 93% of the excess heat trapped in the atmosphere by greenhouse gas emissions over the last 50 years. One group of scientists has estimated that if this excess heat was to be instantaneously transferred to the atmosphere it would lead to a temperature increase of 36°C. Under such conditions most of life on Earth could not survive”. SCIENCE!!! OCEANS!!!
