Oceans are heating up 60% faster than IPCC claims



The findings of the recent report by IPCC reveals that oceans are heating up 60% faster. Scientists rely on robotic devices called Argo array which floats in different depths at all the oceans and comes to the surface every 0 days to provide their readings to the satellite. Still, 3800 such devices are floating in oceans they are not evenly divided. Some areas of water bodies have many such devices and some areas have less. To keep global warming without exceeding 2 degree Celsius above pre-industrial levels, IPCC recommended cutting 20 per cent of climate emissions by 2030. But the Princeton researchers say that emission levels in the coming decades would need to be 25 percent lower than IPCC recommendations. The researchers also stated that even if the humanity manages to get emission levels into zero, the greenhouse gases that have already emitted to the atmosphere will remain for hundred years and keep warming up the planet.
