Climate scientist Robert Rohde says while Canada\u0027s average temperature was well above normal last year, 2021 was almost a degree warmer than 2022, making it the fifth hottest on record.

earlier this week, Berkeley Earth says 2022 was the planet’s fifth hottest since 1850, driven largely by extreme heat waves in Europe last summer.Article contentalso said Earth’s average surface temperature in 2022 tied with 2015 as the fifth warmest on record.

And, NASA said the past nine years have been the warmest years since modern record-keeping began in 1880. This means Earth in 2022 was about 1.11 C warmer than the late 19th century average. The summer heat waves included the first ever recorded 40 C in the U.K., which the report says would be “virtually impossible without global warming.”

The Paris Agreement aims to keep global heating below 2 C and strives for no more than 1.5 C. However, as the report notes, the world is on track to breach that goal by 2034. If the Paris Agreement’s goal of no more than 2 C is to be reached, then significant progress on cutting greenhouse gas emissions must be made soon, the report says.Article content
