“Charting Impending Doom: Three Essential Ways to Track the Onset of Destruction
When it comes to tracking the effects of climate change, it’s important to pay attention to the signs of impending doom. We can track the signs of the changing climate using charts and data produced by leading researchers now more than ever. In order to do this, here are three charts to track impending doom:
The first chart to keep an eye on is the temperature change chart. This chart shows how much the average yearly global temperature has changed over the decades, with temperatures being higher than ever recorded in the past. This chart indicates how far the Earth’s average temperature has increased, and will continue to increase if no dramatic measures are taken to reduce emissions.
The second chart to pay attention to is the sea level rise chart. This chart from the NOAA (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration) displays sea level rising over the course of the past decades, showing how global warming is pushing seas ever higher around the world. Small islands and coastal cities will be particularly affected by this trend.
The third chart to track impending doom is the species extinction chart. This chart shows how many types of animal and plant species have gone extinct due to climate change-induced disasters like increased storms and droughts. This chart shows that the rate of species extinction is increasing, with more species going extinct every year.
By closely tracking these charts, citizens, researchers, and decision makers will be better prepared to combat the effects of global warming and climate change. Researching the data on the charts provides insight into how much danger the planet is in. Citizens can use this knowledge to take action in reducing emissions and to hold leaders responsible in controlling
emissions. The only way to ensure the Earth’s long-term health is to take the steps necessary to reduce emissions and slow down climate change. By keeping up to date with these charts, crucial steps can be taken to help protect the planet.
