2024 'increasingly likely' to be warmest on record - EU
Quick Glance: Climate Experts Predict 2024 to Break Records Despite Global Temperature Decline
  • Last year, the Earth did not set a new monthly global temperature record. However, in July, the planet experienced its two warmest days globally. According to a recent report by Copernicus, the European Union's Climate Change Service, it is increasingly likely that 2024 will become the warmest year on record.

  • Scientists predicted a slight decrease in the global average temperature due to the cessation of El Niño and the emergence of La Niña conditions over the equatorial eastern Pacific in the upcoming months.

  • The long-term global average temperature trend continues to rise due to human-amplified climate change, regardless of other factors causing short-term fluctuations.

  • Experts at Copernicus suggest that 2024 is increasingly likely to become the warmest year on record. The current global average temperature anomaly through the end of July is 0.27 degrees Celsius warmer than the same period in 2023.

U.N. climate chief says two years to save the planet
Quick Glance: U.N. climate chief emphasizes urgency in global climate action
  • Governments worldwide are urged to act within two years to prevent worsening climate change, with a focus on halving greenhouse gas emissions by 2030 to avoid a significant temperature increase. Despite rising emissions last year, current commitments are insufficient in reducing global emissions by 2030.

  • The next two years are crucial for saving the planet, according to the Executive Secretary of the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change. Stronger national climate plans are deemed essential, especially from the G20 countries, responsible for 80% of global emissions. A key goal of this year's UN climate negotiations is to establish a new climate finance target to aid developing nations in transitioning away from fossil fuels.

  • Efforts are being made to provide more climate finance through debt relief, affordable financing for poorer countries, new international funding sources like a shipping emissions tax, and reforms at institutions such as the World Bank and IMF. Additionally, calls are made for a revamp of capital requirements and increased use of Climate Resilient Debt Clauses at the World Bank. Politicians worldwide are urged to prioritize climate action as it often takes a backseat on government agendas.
