| Global sea levels are rising three times faster than a quarter of a century ago because of global warming, a study shows.
Ice losses from Antarctica have increased sea levels by almost 8mm (1/3 inch) since 1992, with two-fifths of this rise coming in the last five years alone.
The finds mean people in coastal communities are at greater risk of losing their homes and becoming so-called climate refugees than previously feared.
