This is a pretty terrifying explanation.
It's less terrifying than the initial graph since it at least suggests this is a temporary period of rapid ocean warning while the climate rapidly reaches where it should have been. I'm (overly-)hopeful that the brief period of rapid climate change will finally spur more meaningful action by governments, but probably not. It's going to take an entire region of a western nation being unmistakably destroyed by climate change before that happens. Unless a powerhouse like China or potentially India decides to force the world into meaningful climate action
