The effects of climate change are slowly and surely taking over the world. Many parts of the world are facing various weather problems like drought, heavy rains, heat waves, etc. And now, to add to the list of weather issues, July 2023 is called the hottest month. Most popular “for hundreds, even thousands of years”, according to a NASA climatologist.
July 2023 Will Be The Hottest Month In 100’s Of Years
July will be the most hottest month in the world in “hundreds, if not thousands of years”. That’s what Gavin Schmidt, director of NASA’s Goddard Institute for Space Studies told reporters on July 20. This is according to the Money Control report.
The announcement was made during a meeting at NASA headquarters in Washington. The conference included climate experts and other leading agencies. Two of them are Chief Scientist and Senior Advisor Kate Calvin and NASA Administrator Bill Nelson. According to a report from The Guardian, the meeting took place during the summer which put the climate problem on the global display. Dangerous floods have hit New England, smoke from forests in Canada has shut down American cities. According to reports, in the south and west of the United States, breaking temperature records are being witnessed. Because of this, millions of people have been subject to heat advisories.
Climate Change And Its Severe Effects, Globally
Reports also suggest that a NASA climate researcher also believes that if this continues, 2023 will be considered the hottest year on record. Scientists predict that 2024 will be a hotter year than 2023. Thanks to the El Niño type of weather. El Nino weather patterns are known for their tendency to increase global temperatures. Scientists hope that pattern will likely peak toward the end of this year.
Climate change is a huge and growing problem that has been ignored for years and years. Nothing has been done to reverse the effects of human made damage on the Earth. And a lot, we might add. From India experiencing the worst monsoon to France experiencing the worst drought, it is clear that mother nature is not happy.
