This sharp rise highlights a troubling truth that climate change is not just continuing - it is accelerating.     The past three years alone have been the warmest ever recorded in the human history. The triple-whammy of record heat   - 2023, 2024, 2025  - stands as a stark reminder that global warming is a constant reality, sending a clear message that the planet’s climate system is shifting fast. From scorching heatwaves to intense storms and melting glaciers , the fingerprints of a warming planet are becoming even more impossible to ignore.

His explanation to the complex web of environmental degradation in layman’s terms revealed not just the depth of the crisis, but also our collective inability to control climate change , larg...
