The United Nations has issued its most sombre warning till date on the issue of climate change.
United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres has pleaded for immediate radical action on climate change, saying that record-shattering July temperatures show that Earth has now passed from a warming phase into an “era of global boiling”.
Speaking in New York, Guterres described the intense heat across the northern hemisphere as a “cruel summer”.
“For the entire planet, it is a disaster,” he said, noting that “short of a mini-Ice Age over the next days, July 2023 will shatter records across the board.” His remarks came as scientists across the world have confirmed that July is on track to be the hottest month ever recorded in history.
A set of new data new data released by the European Union’s Copernicus programme ..and the World Meteorological Organization, have revealed that global temperatures this month have shattered all previous records.
New data unequivocally show that so far, July has seen the hottest three-week period ever recorded… and the three hottest days on record.
