Scientists say the world’s oceans are warming far more quickly than previously thought, a finding with dire implications for climate change because almost all the excess heat absorbed by the planet ends up stored in their waters.

A new analysis, published Thursday in the journal Science, found that the oceans are heating up 40 percent faster on average than a United Nations panel estimated five years ago. The researchers also concluded that ocean temperatures have broken records for several straight years.

    Whose fault it is? Pollution? experiments? weaponization? because all three are documented.

    bearing in mind that those strongly opposed to wars with conventional weapons that don't take into account how modern wars are fought with finance, demography, and soon climate/mind control, are probably bulshitting you.

    I think you people in Italy need to wake up from your fucked up world of conspiracy theories. Seriously, wake the fuck up. The only documented thing you wrote is you live in some whacked up world of make belief, like the Russians do.

    And your anecdotal evidence of "the beach hasn't receded, since the 1970s." is meaningless at best. Whether your favourite beach receded or not has nothing to do with whether oceans are warming.
