Earth's energy imbalance has doubled, scientists warn

Original: Earth’s energy imbalance has doubled – here’s why that matters

Researchers at the Priestley Centre for Climate Futures report that Earth's energy imbalance – the gap between sunlight absorbed and heat radiated back to space – has roughly doubled. They warn the shift means more heat is accumulating in oceans and atmosphere, accelerating warming, sea level rise and extreme weather, and underscoring the urgency of cutting emissions faster.

Why now: New analysis showing a doubled energy imbalance signals climate change is accelerating faster than expected.
