*Daily global average temperature records keep being broken this month* 🚨
The Earth has just experienced its warmest days in recent history. According to the Copernicus Climate Change Service, the daily global average temperature reached a record high of 17.09°C on 21 July 2024, surpassing the previous record of 17.08°C set on 6 July 2023. This record was quickly broken the next day, with preliminary satellite data showing the global average temperature climbing to 17.15°C on 22 July 2024. These unprecedented temperatures are attributed to ongoing global warming driven by human activities such as burning fossil fuels and deforestation.
Given the current trajectory of global warming, more record-breaking temperatures are expected in the coming days and weeks, suggesting that 2024 may become the warmest year on record.

Carlo Buontempo, Director of the Copernicus Climate Change Service indicated that we are in "uncharted territory." The ten years with the highest daily average temperatures have all occurred from 2015 to 2024, reminding us, once more of the urgent need for global climate action.

    The rapid rise in global temperatures is alarming and calls for immediate and collective action to combat global warming. Let us hope that this will be a wake-up call for everyone to take climate change seriously before it is too late. https://myperfecthotel.io

        Just recently Nasa issued, among other things, that large swaths of Brazil can become unliveable in 50 years... and not a single politician here seem to care.

          Wir müssen die Rechtsextremen verhindern und dann gemeinsam und entschlossen handeln, um die schimmsten Auswüchse der Klimakatastrophe zu verhindern.
