WMO warns 'ocean warming at record levels & will continue for hundreds, if not thousands, of years'
Oliver Farry is pleased to welcome Claire Ransom, coordinator of the WMO's State of the Global Climate 2025 report. Ransom warns that the planet is not only warming, but entering a state of energy imbalance.
