Scientists Warn 2023 Continues to Break Temperature Records
Scientists Warn 2023 , Continues to Break , Temperature Records.
'Time' reports that October was officially the
hottest on record, coming in 3.1 degrees Fahrenheit
warmer than the month's pre-industrial average. .
It is the fifth consecutive month to
break records, meaning 2023 is on track
to be the warmest year ever recorded. .
The amount that we’re
smashing records by is shocking, Samantha Burgess, Deputy director of the
Copernicus Climate Change Service, via 'Time'.
Peter Schlosser, vice president and vice provost of the Global
Futures Laboratory at Arizona State University, warns that
increased temperature means more extreme weather events. .
This is a clear sign that we are going
into a climate regime that will have
more impact on more people. , Peter Schlosser, Vice president and vice provost of the Global
Futures Laboratory at Arizona State University, via 'Time'.
We better take this warning
that we actually should have
taken 50 years ago or more
and draw the right conclusions, Peter Schlosser, Vice president and vice provost of the Global
Futures Laboratory at Arizona State University, via 'Time'.
Samantha Burgess, deputy director of the Copernicus
Climate Change Service, says the current El Nino will
continue to drive warming over the coming months.
Schlosser warns that the world should expect to see
more records broken, adding that the planet has already
exceeded the 2.7 degrees cap set in the Paris agreement. .
Burgess and other experts say that
the world's need to stop planet-warming
emissions has become urgent.
It's so much more expensive to
keep burning these fossil fuels
than it would be to stop doing it.
That’s basically what it shows, Friederike Otto, Climate scientist
at Imperial College London, via 'Time'.
And of course, you don’t see that when you just look at the records being broken and not at the people and systems that are suffering, but that — that is what matters, Friederike Otto, Climate scientist
