Whoa, scientists just dropped a massive new climate dataset going all the way back to 1781—and it’s shaking up what we thought we knew about global warming. Turns out, humans may have started heating the planet earlier than we realized, and by more than we thought. But don’t panic: experts say this doesn’t change climate targets or speed up impacts, it just gives us a clearer (and honestly, wilder) picture of how much we’ve already changed the planet. #Science #ClimateChange #ScienceNews
