The next 5 years will be very hot
The World Meteorological Organization (WMO) said in its new analysis of global temperatures on Wednesday (May 17) that global warming will cross the threshold of 1.5 degrees Celsius for the first time in the next five years. It said the 1.5 degree Celsius temperature limit could be breached, at least temporarily, over the next five years.
According to an Indian Express report, a WMO analysis says there is a 66 percent chance of global warming of 1.5 degrees Celsius or more than the pre-industrial average in at least one year between 2023 and 2027. Also, there is a 98 percent chance that one of these years will surpass 2016 as the warmest year on record.
2016 is now believed to be the hottest year on record. The annual mean temperature for that year was 1.28 °C higher than in pre-industrial times (average for the period 1850–1900). At the same time, last year (2022) was 1.15°C warmer than the pre-industrial average.
Separately, a new study released on Wednesday said climate change may be largely responsible for the intense heat wave that hit India and some neighboring countries in April.
The WMO said the average annual temperature for the next five years is expected to be 1.1 to 1.8 degrees Celsius above the pre-industrial average. If the rising temperature trend is halted immediately, the breach of the 1.5°C temperature limit could become permanent very soon.
