European climate agency says this will likely be the hottest year on record -- again.

The report from Copernicus highlights the relentless nature of global warming, driven by the constant increase of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. Scientists emphasize that the long-term increase in temperatures beyond fluctuations like El Nino is a bad sign. The article also mentions the upcoming UN climate conference and the need for increased funds to adapt to global heating and its consequences. ● The globe will likely be the hottest it's ever been for the second year in a row ● Global temperatures reached over 1.5 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels ● The long-term increase in temperatures beyond fluctuations like El Nino is a bad sign ● The UN climate conference is set to begin in Azerbaijan, focusing on generating trillions of dollars to help the world transition to clean energies ● The $28 billion spent worldwide to adapt to climate change in 2022 is an all-time high, but still far short of the estimated $187 to $359 billion needed every year
