To the editor:

The climate is warming. From the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change Sixth Assessment report published this past week, we can now definitively say the following: global surface temperatures from 2011-2020 have risen 1.59ºC compared to 1850-1900. Each decade, for the last 40 years, has been successively warmer than any other decade since records started in 1850.
