Evidence has emerged to suggest an acceleration in Earth's warming trend, particularly in ocean temperatures, according to a recent study led by environmental scientist Audrey Minière of Paul Sabatier University in France. This comes amidst ongoing debates within the scientific community about the acceleration of global warming.

"Detecting an acceleration of Earth heating has remained elusive to date, despite suggestive evidence of a potential increase in heating rates," the researchers write in their paper published in Scientific Reports.&nbsp;

<h2>Earth is warming up but there could be a catch</h2>

Climate scientist Zeke Hasfather told the Associated Press that <a href="https://academic.oup.com/oocc/article/3/1/kgad008/7335889?login=false">another</a> study which suggested that the rate of warming has jumped by 50 per cent since 2010, is "not particularly well supported by the literature".

Current data implies an imminent breach of the global commitment to limit warming to 1.5°C, irrespective of whether heat increases are accelerating. The consequences are already apparent, with extreme weather events such as floods, fires, and storms intensifying.

As Hansen predicts, "There won't be any argument [by] late next spring, we'll be way off the trend line."

The research was published in Scientific Reports and underscored the urgency of addressing accelerated warming and its far-reaching impacts on the planet.

<h2>What is the current study stating?</h2>

The study says that more investigations are needed to attribute the changes related to the Earth's warming trends in terms of its alignment with a rise in Carbon dioxide levels.&nbsp;

"The long-term acceleration of Earth warming aligns qualitatively with the rise in CO2 concentrations and the decline in aerosol concentration during the same period," Minière and colleagues explain.

"But further investigations are necessary to properly attribute these changes," they further say.

Earth could be warming at a faster pace than previously known: Study

Experts say the 2C warm Earth will see the number of people facing more than double the extreme heat waves. Watch this report for more details.

What will earth look like if it warms up by 2 degree Celsius?

The risks posed by climate change encompass immediate disasters like earthquakes and floods. The crisis is essentially a slow killer, which has now picked up pace owing to the rising temperatures across the globe. If current goals of keeping global temperatures 1.5 degree Celsius above pre-industrial levels fail, we could lose a lot of cherished animal species globally.

Coral systems which are responsible for building reefs are already disappearing from the oceans, threatening life in the ocean as we know it. If temperatures continue to rise, polar animals will lose their habitat, including penguins in Antarctica. The consequences are far-reaching in scope, threatening species like puffins in the UK and the black-headed squirrel monkey in the Amazon.

The devastation to ecosystems and species could become even more massive if temperatures rise above 1.5 degree Celsius, depriving many species of food and survival, a new report by the WWF reveals. The report assessed the effects of climate change on 12 key species in the world.

According to WWF, protecting animal habitats around the world remains key to prevent warming from exceeding 1.5 degree Celsius.&nbsp; The report adds that quicker degradation of vegetation and complex ecologies would accentuate the devastating effects of climate change. For example - the more dirty our oceans become, the less carbon it can absorb.&nbsp;

Even a surge of 0.5 degree Celsius could be devastating to many species on Earth including snow leopards, hippopotamuses, monkeys, sea turtles, frogs and corals.&nbsp; Many of these species are dependent on stable and consistent changes in weather for survival, but as patterns become erratic they could lose their edge over predators and even the ability to reproduce.

The cost of climate change is already too high! Since 1970, 68 per cent of global wildlife populations have plummeted. If governments around the world don’t pull up their socks soon, we may lose a lot of species over the next few decades.
