The U.N. weather agency announced today that Earth is already experiencing some of its highest temperatures in 100,000 years and there is nearly a 90 percent chance that the planet will set another record for its warmest year by 2028.
Furthermore, the agency indicated that there is a significant likelihood that, between now and 2028, the average global temperature will rise by 1.5 degrees Celsius (2.7 degrees Fahrenheit) above pre-industrial levels. This threshold was set under the 2015 Paris Agreement as the limit to avoid the most catastrophic impacts of climate change.
