The event is 5 standard deviations beyond the mean average, statistically a one-in-7.5 million-year warming event. The scientists don't know why it is happening, and the loss of ice means
We can't stop climate change, but maybe we can prevent our own extinction Everything possible needs to be done, including carbon mitigation. At the rate at which nature is declining
