Is Climate Change Just a Lot of Hot Air?

The video explains how greenhouse gases have warmed Earth's surface, with most of the extra energy being absorbed by the oceans. This increase in ocean heat content significantly impacts weather patterns, leading to heavier rains, harsher droughts, and more powerful storms. The video highlights the role of warmer oceans in intensifying storms like Hurricane Sandy and Typhoon Haiyan, emphasizing the link between ocean heat and extreme weather events.
