Warmer Years Ahead, Warns Climate Body as Global Temperature Could Breach 1.5°C Threshold in 5 Years

News 18  

As unprecedented heat conditions continue to take a massive toll on people, the World Meteorological Organization has warned that the situation might get worse as it strongly predicts at least one year between 2022 and 2026 could be the warmest surpassing the last record set in 2016. “The annual mean global near-surface temperature for each year between 2022 and 2026 is predicted to be between 1.1°C and 1.7°C higher than preindustrial levels,” said the WMO’s lead meteorological centre in the UK which prepared the report based on the information provided by global climate scientists and the prediction systems from leading climate centres around the world. “It is rather an indicator of the point at which climate impacts will become increasingly harmful for people and indeed the entire planet.” Tallas warned that for as long as countries continue to emit greenhouse gases, temperatures will continue to rise — oceans will continue to become warmer and more acidic, sea ice and glaciers will continue to melt, sea level will continue to rise and our weather will become more extreme. The Paris Agreement requires all countries to substantially reduce global greenhouse gas emissions to limit the global temperature increase in this Century to 2°C while pursuing efforts to limit the increase even further to 1.5°C. Impact on Global Weather Patterns According to the WMO, the temperature variations over the Arctic are also predicted to be three times as large as the global mean variations when compared to the 1991-2020, averaged over the next five northern hemisphere extended winters.
