Global Temperature Likely to Breach 1.5°C in Next Five Years
The World Meteorological Organization (WMO) has raised a serious warning about climate change. According to a recent report, there is a 70% chance that global temperatures will cross the 1.5°C limit above pre-industrial levels between the years 2025 and 2029.
The WMO's report titled "Global Annual to Decadal Climate Update (2025-2029)," says that the Earth's average temperature between 2025 and 2029 could be between 1.2°C and 1.9°C above pre-industrial levels.
This prediction is based on current climate trends.
Also, there is an 80% chance that at least one of the next five years will break the record set in 2024, which was already the hottest year ever recorded.
