He June what just ended was the hottest everThe EU’s climate change monitoring service said on Monday it was extending a string of exceptional temperatures that some scientists say puts us on track for 2024. the hottest year ever recorded in the world.
Every month from June 2023 -13 in a row- was the hottest on the planet since there are data, compared to the same month of previous years, indicated in the monthly bulletin Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S) of the European Union.
Recent evidence suggests that this may be the case overtake 2023 as hottest year because there are records both after anthropogenic climate change and after natural weather events Boy Some scientists believe that this year’s temperatures have reached record levels.
“I have now calculated that there is approximately one 95% probability about what 2024 exceeds 2023 “as the warmest year since global surface temperature records began in the mid-19th century,” said Zeke Hausfather, a research fellow at the U.S. nonprofit. Berkeley Earth.
Climate change has already triggered catastrophic consequences worldwide in 2024.

More 1,000 people died from the heat violent during the Hajj pilgrimage last month. Heat-related deaths were reported in New Delhi, which experienced unprecedented heat, and among tourists in Greece.

In recent months this effect has diminished and the world is now in neutral conditions before the coldest conditions arrive Young woman at the end of this year.
Data set The C3S appeared in 1940.and scientists compared this data with other data to confirm that the last month was the hottest june from the period 1850-1900.
Greenhouse gas emissions from burning fossil fuels They are the main cause of climate change.
Despite promises to slow global warming, countries have not achieved are still collectively reducing these emissions, which has led to a steady rise in temperatures over the decades.
According to C3S, for the 12 months ended June, Average global temperature was the highest on record During this type of period, the average temperature is 1.64 degrees Celsius above the pre-industrial period average.
