WMO Warns 2025 Among Hottest Years
The World Meteorological Organization (WMO) has said that 2025 is one of the hottest years ever recorded.
This is because of higher greenhouse gas emissions and climate patterns like El Niño.
The WMO warns that extreme weather events like heatwaves, droughts, floods, and wildfires are happening more often and are more intense.
They say we need to take stronger action to fight climate change, adapt better, and switch to clean energy faster.
This also supports the goals of the Paris Agreement to limit temperature rise.
2025 is among the hottest years ever recorded globally, according to the WMO.
Rising global temperatures are driven by increased greenhouse gas emissions and climate patterns like El Niño.
Extreme weather events, including heatwaves, droughts, floods, and wildfires, are becoming more frequent and intense.
The WMO emphasizes the urgent need for stronger climate action, improved adaptation measures, and a faster transition to clean energy.
The findings reinforce global commitments under the Paris Agreement to limit temperature rise.
