2023 has become the hottest in the history of observations since 1850. The average annual temperature approached 1.5 ° C, exceeding the pre -industrial level, and humanity was on the first of the two mentioned in the Parisian agreement of the borders, beyond which scientists predict the catastrophic consequences of climate change on Earth.
Researchers from the Copernicus climatic center under the European Union published an annual climatic review, which states that 2023 broke the previous 2016 record with a large margin.
“In 2023, for the first time in the history of observations, every day within a year exceeded 1 ° C of the pre-industrial level of 1850-1900. Almost every second day was more than 1.5 ° C warmer than in 1850-1900 , and two days in November for the first time pierced the line of 2 ° C, ”the review says.
Back in 2015, at the UN conference on climate change in Paris, almost all countries of the world agreed to restrain the increase in temperatures on the planet in this century within 2 ° C to the pre -industrial level, and ideally prevent 1.5 ° C. Back in 2015, at the UN conference on climate change in Paris, almost all countries of the world agreed to restrain the temperature on the planet in this century within 2 ° C to the pre -industrial level, and ideally not allow 1.5 ° C.
