2024 Set to Become Hottest Year on Record
The year 2024 is set to be the hottest on record, with global temperatures expected to surpass those of 2023
On July 21, Sunday, the Earth experienced its hottest day ever recorded, according to data from the European Union Climate Change Office, "Copernicus." This organization, which has been monitoring weather patterns and climate trends since 1940, reported that the global average surface temperature reached 17.09 degrees Celsius. This surpasses the previous highest temperature of 17.08 degrees Celsius.
The "Copernicus" scientists noted a significant trend in recent months, with each month from June 2023 onward being hotter than the same month in the previous year. They predict that 2024 may surpass 2023 in terms of heat. The extreme temperatures are attributed to climate change, driven by the burning of fossil fuels and other human activities.
