Hit their highest average Surface Temperature on record, as they soak up warmth from Climate Change and scientists are warning this will have serious consequences for the health of the planet. The average temperature this week was nearly 21 celsius, far above whats typical for this time of year. The global average is around half a Degree Celsius Lower which might not sound much, but experts say they are worried. The oceans are vital to help regulate our climate and drive weather patterns, and are home to a vast range of species. Heres our climate editorjustin rowlatt. Marine scientists send down an array of instruments to assess the impact of Warming Sea Water off the coast of plymouth. Have we got a reading for today yet, do you know . I heard them Say Something around 18 19, which is 4 Degrees Higher than it should be.
