The phenomenon of global warming has led to frequent extreme weather, and although the epidemic has slightly reduced economic activity and carbon emissions, it has still not reversed the trend. NASA recently announced that 2021 will be the sixth warmest year on record, continuing the warming trend.
NASA and NOAA recently released the latest report, saying that now we have entered a new cycle, this 10 years may be the warmest 10 years in many years, and the climate will continue to become extreme. Last July was also the warmest in human records. The 54.4 degrees recorded last year in Death Valley, California, during the hot months, challenged the record for the hottest surface temperature on record for the second year in a row. The 48.8 degrees recorded in Sicily in Europe was also the highest temperature ever recorded in Europe.
Hot weather is also having an impact on the economy. Among them, in the United States, heat waves have caused roads to collapse, power lines to melt, and even wildfires. And the health problems caused by the hot weather are also worrying. In addition, in 2021, the heat in the ocean will also break the previous record, in addition to the impact on the marine ecology, the fishery will also suffer. Last year was a year affected by the La Niña phenomenon, which has already caused a slight drop in temperature. Without this effect this year, whether it will make the situation worse, we must continue to observe.
