"With 2023 the warmest year on record, 2024 could see the unwelcome milestone of 1.5 degres of warming reached for a full year. The year 2023 has been confirmed as the warmest in recorded history with average global temperatures topping 1,5 degrees of heating above preindustrial levels for one third os the year. It continues the rapis warming trend, with te 10 warmest years in human histiry all having occurred since 2010.
So, whay could 2014 hold? Forescast suggest the year ahead is likely to be another breaker, with a strong possibility that this could be the first full year to go beyond 1,5 º of warming. The ongoing El Niño event, which brings warmer to the tropical Pacific Ocean, is helping to push global temperatures up, but UK Met Service scientist say the main driver of the record-breaking tempertures is human-induced warming. Their global outlook for 2024 suggest we will end the next year with average global temperture somewhere between 1.34º and 1.54 º above preindustrial levels.
Overshooting 1.5 º would be an unwelcome milestone but it would not mean we have breached the Paris agreement. Curiously, the 2015 climate accord did not how we would recognize that the 1.5 º target had been surpassed, but it is widely accepted to mean a longer-term average over 20 years or so. Rather than waiting decades for data to roll in, recent research published in Nature suggest using a blend of observations and model projections to test when 1.5 º has been passed".

Forest are fundamental ecosystems for leaving and the water is an essential matter too! Pero ....¿qué está pasando en los bosques del Congo Africano ?. Se llama Robar y esquilmar los recurso desde el rico hacia el pobre!. Pero no solo pasa en esas latitudes.
