Earth in Danger - The Last Warmest Five Years in History

The average temperature in 2015-2019 is the highest 1.1 degrees Celsius in proportion to the period 1850-1900, according to a report published by the World Meteorology Organisation, Kosova Preris broadcasts.

Recent data confirms the tendency of the previous four years, which have already been the warmest recorded since 1850.

July 2019 was marked by more hot waves, especially in Europe, breaking the absolute temperature record.

Coal, oil, and gas continued to grow throughout 2018. The greenhouse gas issue has increased, and will at least be at the same level as in 2018, according to scientists working on this GDP report.

The concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is expected to reach a new peak by the end of 2019, according to preliminary data: 410 parts per million.

According to current countries' commitments to reducing their emissions, our planet will be warmer between 2.9 and 3.4 degrees Celsius by 2100.

This suggests that efforts by countries to combat harmful gases must increase to maintain heating to plus 1.5 degrees Celsius as predicted in the 2015 Paris Treaty.

In reality, warming may be even higher, according to the latest climate models, such as those envisioned by a French team, under which the worst case scenario may be the rise of temperature by 7 degrees Celsius.

“Division has never been so large between what the world wants to achieve and the realities of the countries' climate plans”, warned in the report.

UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres wants to begin closing this division by gathering 60 leaders to the UN on Monday, ahead of the General Assembly's annual session and three days after major youth climate preservation demonstrations worldwide.

Many leaders must promise that zero emissions will reach by 2050”, Guterres said.
