2023 Will Be the Hottest Year on Record

HeadlineNov 09, 2023

The European Union’s climate monitoring agency says 2023 is on track to be the hottest year in at least 125,000 years. October shattered the previous record for the month, set in 2019, with surface temperatures soaring to 0.85 degrees Celsius above historical averages. On Wednesday, a new United Nations report found that the world’s top fossil fuel producers still plan to produce  more than double the amount of fossil fuels in 2030 than what would be consistent with limiting global heating to 1.5 degrees Celsius.
