“Deeply disturbing is the increase in climate-related disasters, including the massive 2019-20 Australian fires, and the fact that the three major greenhouse gases — carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide — are setting record atmospheric concentrations in 2020 and again in 2021.” said Thomas Newsome, an ecologist from the University of Sydney who co-authored the warning.
