Session 2: The planet is changing

Completion requirements

This map is colour coded in square cells on a grid, mostly with crosses in each cell, to show the change of temperature over the globe. Data points are over land and oceans. Most regions show temperature increases over 0.20 °C, some as high as 2.5 °C (including central Asia and parts of west Africa and Brazil). There are some decreases e.g. in the ocean South of Greenland. Some areas are white, largely Antarctica, the polar oceans and some regions of the Pacific Ocean and Africa.
