The Met Office is warning that the outlook for global temperature suggests 2024 will be a further record-breaking year, expected to exceed 2023, which is itself almost certain to be the warmest year on record.
The abundance of heat-trapping greenhouse gases in the atmosphere once again reached a new record last year and there is no end in sight to the rising trend, according to a new report from the World Meteorological Organization (WMO).
Global efforts to limit warming to 1.5°C are failing across the board, according to the State of Climate Action 2023 report. The report says that with the exception of electric passenger car sales, recent progress made on every indicator is lagging significantly behind the pace and scale that is necessary to address the climate crisis.
The EU’s Copernicus Climate Change Service is warning that “exceptional temperature anomalies” in October mean 2023 is “virtually certain” to be warmest year on record.
Water UK has published a new report on developing a long-term strategy for bioresources in England, working collaboratively on the project with regulators and stakeholders across the industry to develop a common understanding of the challenges and opportunities for bioresources.
