i was good to talk to you, thank you. we start with a new climate report from the world meteorological organization. its annual state of the planet report shows 2022 was a year of extremes. here arejust some of the findings. global sea levels hit a record high last year, due in part to melting glaciers and warming oceans. and sea levels are rising twice as fast compared to just three decades ago. the planet continues to heat up, in fact, the last eight years were the warmest since reliable records began. and extreme climate events from droughts to floods have led to some 95 million people being displaced around the world. earlier my colleague carl nasman spoke with jay inslee, the governor of the us state of washington, about that climate report and what needs to be done to fast track climate action in the country. thank you forjoining us and taking the time to talk to us. this new report from the world meteorological organisation, it is essentially a report cut and
