Eamon Ryan (GP), Dublin Bay South

As well as those monthly increases, global ocean temperatures have jumped completely beyond what the scientists expected. The average temperature increase is more than 1.5°C. The best scientists tell us that when you go over 1.5°C, you risk crossing tipping points into runaway climate change that cannot be stopped, and that imperils us all. We know this at home because it has been raining for the past ten months in a way that it has never done before.
