Climate change: 'Uncharted territory' fears after record hot March | BBC News

Climate change could move "into uncharted territory" if temperatures don't fall by the end of the year, a leading scientist has told the BBC.

The warning came as data showed last month was the world's warmest March on record, extending the run of monthly temperature records to 10 in a row.

It's fuelled concerns among some that the world could be tipping into a new phase of even faster climate change.

A weather system called El Niño is behind some of the recent heat.

It seems to me that the climate change debate has stopped being a debate.

Hottest March on record 😂😂😂😂. My heating bill will tell me how "hot" March was as that doesn't lie to me.

[vinucini]

Yeah its true because here in kerala my parents are saying the heat is horrible. They can't take it anymore. They haven't experienced anything like this in their childhood

Zimbabwe has been in a state of de facto national disaster for 40 years.

We Zimbabweans have had droughts on a regular basis since the 1970s our Rain depends on the ITCZ and It only rains for a few months each year .The Zimbabwean Government Ruined Irrigation And Agriculture in that country we have had a massive amount of rain in the UK .Weather should not be confused with Climate and Climate Change, don’t let the Climate Cultists Scare you

[ozychk]

Our political leaders, the media and business leaders have utterly failed us and yet, we let them

I saw a headline a couple of days ago in the uk 🇬🇧 about a hosepipe ban 😳. It hasn't stopped raining here since October 🙄.

As one who has chest problems because of having breathed in petrol and diesel fumes for 66 years. I wouldn’t wish being permanently ill because of the fumes we produce with our cars and vehicles.

It was warm in March because the wind came from the South.
Its not the warmest ever if you look at the past, rather than last week.
The Sumerians had it the warmest so they could bake their clay tablets. it was a bit cooler for the Vikings and cooler again for the Romans. Here's us even cooler at the bottom of the graph wearing duvets as coats and thermal socks, being told its the warmest ever by the BBC which is misinformation.

The BBC, by ceasing all broadcasts, could help massively to reduce the global carbon footprint.

[oldgregg.]

Shouldn't global warming affect the globe? Yet I look out of my window in Scotland and have seen nothing but rain for 6 months.

[paulineinnes]

Does people still listen to the propaganda.

[possumyx]

Utter rubbish. Doubt Zimbabwe woud have had these problems in the past.

Last time global temp naturally rose 5 degrees C it took 80, 000 years to get there.

[bobrowley]

Hottest? Ooo, not again! What absolute bollocks!

[PepeSnow]

Sea levels have not risen they are still the same as 100 years ago, you do realise bbc not everyone is foolish and blind a lot of us actually research what is true and what is not, and more people wake up to these false narratives everyday, which is why soon when everyone switches off from your station you will be gone and we will all cheer 🎉

[paddyanglais]

BBC presenting opinion as fact once again.

[ccuuuuu]

More propaganda from the body bag corporation
