Global warming, but China has extremely cold weather?How can the Arctic become colder in China if it warms so much?Does Global Warming Really Exist?
2023 may be the hottest year on record, but why are there extremely cold weather in some places?Is it climate change**Let's take a look.
Global warming is indeed a real problem. According to the Blue Book on Climate Change in China (2023), since 2013,
The global average temperature is 114, 2022 is the second warmest year since 1901. These are clear signs of the trend of global warming.
However, it is interesting to note that despite the undeniable trend of global warming, 2023 is likely to be the hottest year on record, with high temperatures of 40 degrees and more than 50 degrees in many places
This does not seem to be the same as the situation with global warming. From the point of view of global warming, this extreme cold is not surprising. The climate volatility caused by global warming is becoming more and more intense
Extreme heat can be accompanied by extreme cold. More interestingly, while global warming is driving climate change, China is likely to face even more severe cold weather.
The Arctic is warming and is warming much more than in other regions. The weakening of the polar vortex due to the warming of the Arctic makes it easier for cold air to move south
This in turn led to extremely cold weather in China. This is the reason why China's extremely cold weather "calamities" the warming of the Arctic. In the context of global warming, the collapse of climate tipping points is also becoming increasingly severe.
According to the 2023 Global Tipping Points report, five climate "tipping points" are likely to be triggered, including mass deaths of warm-water coral reefs, melting of the Greenland and West Antarctic ice sheets, and more
The disruption of the subpolar circulation in the North Atlantic, and the disappearance of some permafrost areas. The triggering of these tipping points will lead to more climate change crises, and may even multiply. Therefore, the severity of climate change is already an obvious fact. Not only is the trend of global warming undeniable, but the collapse of climate tipping points is already a possibility.
If we don't take action to change the trend of climate change, we could face even greater climate change challenges.
