Did you know 2024 Was The Warmest Year In History But Climate Experts Warn This Is Just The Beginning of More Catastrophes
As we begin 2025, it’s time to look back at 2024 in terms of climate
change. Looking at what climate experts had to say, it was officially
the hottest year on record.
What made last year even more
noticeable was the fact that there was a high incidence of severe
rainfall events that wreaked havoc around the globe. One notable weather
event has to be the massive rain Dubai entertained in just 24 hours.
The rainfall broke records of 75 years. Another similar incident worth
mentioning has to be Spain where again 772mm of rainfall left many
confused as it spanned 14 hours.
The
report did highlight how El Nino did influence a lot of the weather
events but there was clear proof hinting at how climate change made
matters worse. For instance, the devastation seen in Spain’s historic
rainfall was 12% more intense than seen in the times when industries
were limited.
Weather forecasts alone were enough to stop a lot
of disasters that took place in 2024. Many scientists predicted the need
to adopt enhanced weather warning systems while the community was urged
to prepare better for climate change and stronger resilience.
These facts come to us in a new report published
by a team of scientists from the Institute of Atmospheric Sciences.
They’ve been speaking on the matter for a while now and how climate
change is becoming more extreme with time. Now the point worth
mentioning is how experts warn that this is just the start of what is
yet to come in the future.
