'We have already lost' in 2 key climate change signals, according to UN report

USA Today - 2022 was another year of disastrous and deadly weather and climate extremes around the world, fueled in part by human-caused climate change, the United Nations weather agency said Friday. Droughts, floods and heat waves affected people on every continent and cost many billions of dollars, the UN's World Meteorological Organization said in its new report "The State of the Global Climate 2022." Antarctic sea ice fell to its lowest extent on record, ocean heat and acidity levels reached record heights and the melting of some European glaciers was, literally, off the charts, the WMO said.
