Current annual global temperatures are the warmest they have been in the past 10,000 years, according to a new study examining past periods of climate change.
Researchers from Rutgers University collected marine sediments near the mouth of the Sepik River off northern Papua New Guinea to create a new temperature model of Earth throughout the Holocene - an era spanning from 12,000 years ago to today.
They found that current temperatures are the warmest they have been for 10,000 years and the rate the world is warming has increased since the industrial period.
