A team of researchers have said that 2015 will be the hottest year ever on records while a new research has shown that the next year might be even hotter.
The World Meteorological Organization has reported that it will be hotter next year with an average increase of about 6 degrees indicating its linkage to weather pattern of El Niño.WMO director-general Michel Jarraud said that steps should be taken to control the rise within 2 degrees while growing industrialisation.
He said, “But the more we wait for action, the more difficult it will be. You have scenarios assuming very strong decisions, very quick and sharp reduction of greenhouse gases, and you have other scenarios with business as usual, where you end up with predictions of additional warming of 5, 6 degrees, maybe even more. That will very much depend on the decisions.” The comments are significant as they come before the upcoming United Nations conference on climate change in Paris.
The WMO report said that this year has been hotter due to a combination of a strong El Niño and human-induced global warming.
