Even during the last interglacial (the Eemian), global Sea Surface Temperatures were likely lower than they are now.

We are rapidly barreling to a climate state unseen for millions of years. If ever.

A frog staring off into space in Arenal NP, Costa Rica. Couldn't, for the life of me, figure out the species. Let's hope I find out before it goes extinct 🙂 Any herpetologists?
