The Earth has just recorded the hottest January in history

An additional unhappy record was recorded in regards to climate change on earth: According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), January 2020. It is the hottest January in 141 years since the agency began collecting information about global temperatures.

Accordingly, global ground and ocean surface temperatures in January 2020 surpassed the average of the 20th century by 2.05 degrees Fahrenheit (1.14 degrees Celsius), and simultaneously dumped the entire century. The previous record set in January 2016 was 0.04 degrees Fahrenheit (0.02 degrees Celsius).

However, this information does not surprise many people because there has been a series of signs that global temperatures are on the rise rapidly. In fact, 2019 is the second hottest year in history, and also the year that closes the warmest decade ever recorded. In the face of such a situation, global temperatures continue to break records in 2020, and the decade in the whole decade is entirely possible.

In particular, the most noticeable temperature rise is mainly in the subarctic regions, including most of Russia, the Scandinavian peninsula and eastern Canada, up to 5 degrees Celsius above the average. , while Alaska (USA) and Western Canada have temperatures lower than the average of about 4 degrees C. This shows that climate change on earth is having a very strong impact on the areas. the coldest area, with many serious consequences.

In addition, record warm ocean surface temperatures are also recorded across parts of Scandinavia, Asia, Indian Ocean, Central and Western Pacific, Atlantic, Central and South America.

Many people may think that the above temperature rise is not a big problem. But according to the World Meteorological Organization (WMO), such small increases are enough to cause serious consequences all over the world. The increase in global average temperature is always accompanied by climate change. People must be more serious in dealing with global climate change to avoid the terrible disasters that have ever happened.

It is now essential to use renewable energy sources instead of fossil fuels to reduce CO2 emissions. Promote research to find ways to provide clean energy to life without putting the Earth in jeopardy while promoting education for people to protect our "common home". than.
