If you do NOT want to be one of the many who remain blissfully uninformed — those who somehow can stay complacent amid increasing climate chaos — here is an excellent resource for learning what you need to know.

The World Meteorological Organization (WMO), an agency of the United Nations, provides an annual report on the state of the global climate. This year's effort includes a helpful explainer that covers all the basics with a few minutes reading.

I'm going to pick out several highlights and discuss them in a thread below. This post will serve as an introduction. 🧵 1/5

This graphic from the WMO report is one of the best visuals I have seen that clearly illustrates the connection between increasing greenhouse gas concentrations, rising temperatures, and reinforcing feedback loops that lead to devastating high-impact events with consequent risks to populations around the world.

It's not a pretty picture.
