A UN expert has compiled an analysis that the likelihood of a temporary rise in temperature of "1.5 degrees" over the next five years, which is said to have a serious impact on climate change, has increased to nearly 50%. ..
WMO = World Meteorological Organization publishes analysis results on the current state and future forecasts of the world's climate every year based on data from the meteorological authorities of each country.
According to it, the average global temperature over the last year has already risen by "1.1 degrees" compared to before the Industrial Revolution, and is approaching "1.5 degrees" where the serious effects of climate change are said to be irreversibly widespread. And.
In addition, the possibility that the temperature rise will temporarily exceed "1.5 degrees" in the future was close to zero in 2015, but it has increased to 48% in the five years from 2026 to 2026. doing.
He also estimated that there is a 93% chance that the average annual temperature will exceed the record high of 2016 in the next five years.
At the UN Conference on Climate Change Countermeasures "COP26" held last year, each country agreed to reconsider its greenhouse gas reduction targets in order to limit the temperature rise to "1.5 degrees Celsius".
"As long as we continue to emit greenhouse gases, temperatures will continue to rise, glaciers will melt, sea levels will rise, and the climate will become extreme," the WMO warns.
