The Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service has published its latest report, finding that the world's oceans absorbed a record 23 zettajoules of heat last year, nearly 40 times humanity's total annual energy use. The report also notes that sea levels are rising faster, now reaching 4.2 millimetres per year, underlining the accelerating impact of global warming.

Why now: New data showing record ocean heat uptake and faster sea level rise alarms people concerned about climate change.
