Global warming threshold could be hit temporarily in 2024-UK's Met office
Friday, 8 December 2023
Global average temperature could temporarily cross a 1.5-degree Celsius (2.7 Fahrenheit) threshold next year, Britain's Met Office said on Friday, a milestone in climate history that could raise alarm at the COP28 summit being held in Dubai. The Met Office said this year is almost certainly the warmest on record and 2024 could be even warmer. The average global temperature for 2024 is forecast to be between 1.34C and 1.58C above the average for the pre-industrial period of 1850-1900, it said.
