Rising Air Temperatures

This 7 minute video explores the modern day trend of rising air temperatures. Satellite and on-ground measurements show a 1.2℃ (or 2.1℉) temperature increase globally due to increasing greenhouse gas concentrations. This temperature increase is not uniform with the higher latitudes experiencing even greater temperature increases. Warmer air temperatures are triggering ever more frequent heat waves and weather related hazards.
