Title: August Was World's Joint-Hottest Month On Record, Scientists Say

Link: https://news.slashdot.org/story/26/09/11/0602...

Longtime Slashdot reader AmiMoJo shares a report from the BBC: August was the
joint-hottest month ever recorded, tying with July 2023, according to the
EU's climate service. The record was driven by a combination of climate
change and the rising influence of El Nino, pushing heat into the atmosphere
across the Pacific. Temperatures for the month were 1.65C above pre-
industrial levels -- surpassing the critical 1.5C threshold agreed by
countries to avoid the worst consequences of climate change. While a single
month above 1.5C does not mean it has been permanently crossed, it shows a
trend towards breaching that limit. The month also capped western Europe's
warmest summer, with high temperatures pushing the season past the deadly
heat of 2003.
