The mismatch between climate science and policy action is alarming. There have been ample examples of disasters to serve as a wake up call since Paris and yet the inaction continues.
An analysis of nearly 1,000 extreme weather events reveals that human-induced climate change increased the likelihood of 77% of them. A wake-up call for urgent climate action, adaptation & resilience @CoE_glaciology @iustjk @moefcc @IndiaDST @UNFCCC @CliC_WCRP @ndmaindia @ICCInet

The COP this year should take this into account as it enters its 31st year of negotiations.
An El Niño of record proportions has developed, with the Niño 3.4 region reaching the highest peak sea surface temperature anomaly on record.
