Under the Paris climate agreement, governments around the world have agreed to continue efforts to limit global warming for less than 2C and ideally 1.5c. However, the objectives of the agreement refer to long -term warming over several decades, not by individual months or years.
In Europe, last April was the sixth largest recorded, said Copernic. Echoing the conclusions of other scientists, the agency also noted that a large part of Central Europe, Scandinavia and the United Kingdom strike with a lack of precipitation.
Ocean temperatures worldwide also continue to be abnormally high, have said scientists, with sea surface temperatures outside the fleece areas recording 20.89c – just below the April 2024 record. The hot seas intensify storms, which can then bring rains and extreme floods when they have reached land.
