AI Overview
The current rate of global warming is significantly faster than previous natural warming periods in Earth's history.
Specifically, it's happening at least 10 times faster than the warming that occurred after the last ice age. Recent decades have seen an even greater acceleration, with warming rates in the last few decades being more than three times faster than the long-term average since 1850.
Here's a more detailed breakdownast Warming
uring past transitions out of ice ages, global temperatures rose by roughly 4 to 7 degrees Celsius over about 5,000 years. Current Warming:In the last century, the Earth has warmed by 0.7 degrees Celsius, a rate that is roughly ten times faster than the average rate of ice-age recovery warming.
Accelerating
Rate:The rate of warming has increased in recent decades. For example, the average rate of warming has been more than three times faster since 1975 than it was from 1850 to 1975. Human Influence:This rapid warming is primarily driven by human activities, particularly the release of greenhouse gases from burning fossil fuels, and is happening at a rate unprecedented in at least the last 2,000 years. Consequences:
This rapid warming is leading to significant changes, including rising sea levels, more frequent and intense heatwaves, shifts in weather patterns, and disruptions to ecosystems.
