NASA, NOAA to Announce 2016 Global Temperatures, Climate Conditions

Climate experts from NASA and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration (NOAA) will provide the annually-scheduled release of
data on global temperatures and discuss the most important climate
trends of 2016 during a media teleconference at 11 a.m. EST Wednesday,
Jan. 18.

The teleconference panelists are:

• Gavin Schmidt, director of NASA's Goddard Institute for Space Studies in New York
• Deke Arndt, chief of the global monitoring branch of NOAA’s

NASA and NOAA are two keepers of the world's temperature data and
independently produce a record of Earth's surface temperatures, as well
as changes based on historical observations over oceans and land.

Another milestone. Sea ice extent way below normal at both poles leads to a global record minimum --

They are relocating an entire village about 10 miles north of me due to rising high tide levels. It almost never flooded prior to this century. Happily, a village can be moved. Cities can't, at least not quickly. Whatever the reason, this is happening in a lot of places and it is going to get expensive. I'm glad we don't live on the beach.

I unlike many on here don't argue with the facts just the cause of and solution to the problem.
