----------------------------------------------------------------

A new report by the World Meteorological Organization warns the planet
is experiencing unprecedented increases in global temperatures and
rising sea levels that smash all previous measurements. David Carlson,
director of the World Meteorological Organization's World Climate
Research Program, said, "We are seeing other remarkable changes across
the planet that are challenging the limits of our understanding of the
climate system. We are now in truly uncharted territory."
