JMA monitors the long-term change of the global average surface temperature anomalies for the purpose of monitoring the global warming. In this page, the long-term changes of annual and monthly anomalies of the global average surface temperature are shown. https://ds.data.jma.go.jp/tcc/tcc/products/gwp/temp/ann_wld.html
Overfishing
Eating fish is not as innocent as it seems. Why? Because there are many dirty practices behind fishing, artificially farmed fish in small vats and fish caught in oceans full of plastics. The higher the demand, the more problems. Small fish, big problems Doctors have been telling us for decades that eating fish is healthy….
Are we in danger of famine?
The more people on the planet, the more food they produce. Apparently, very few people are aware of the consequences of declining arable land. People from modern countries don’t even think about hunger. However, people from the developing ones would say something else. The problem with hunger does not seem to be the lack of…
Environmental pollution affects us all!

How does overpopulation affect biodiversity on the planet?
A huge number of species of bacteria, microorganisms, animals, plants, and trees, in short, all living parts live on our planet and together they form a beautiful whole called biodiversity. It sounds logical, because “bios” means life in Latin. Until a few millennia ago, when there were not so many of us, we humans lived…
Diseases and epidemics

This may involve, for example, a closed community of people, but it can quickly escalate into a global pandemic, as we recently saw in the Covid-19 pandemic. Paradoxically, even advanced medicine cannot 100% protect us from various diseases. What…
Climate change, does anyone still think it doesn’t exist?
The equation is that the more people on the planet, the more the climate suffers. There are several factors, but the most serious are deforestation (because there is extreme demand for arable land), melting glaciers, and rising global temperatures due to greenhouse gases produced by humans, so we could go on indefinitely. By 2100, the…
Summits on climate change
Scientists have been sounding the alarm for decades, and despite many people becoming more responsible, the overall climate on the planet is changing for the worse at rocket speeds. There are many climate summits around the world that are open to all people. It is not enough to just participate in them, but also to…
Destruction of the Environment as the Consequence of Overpopulation

To what extent these dramatic-drastic changes become reality depends on how…
Population growth without limit – An end to a taboo subject!
