Earth sizzled to its hottest day ever measured by humans Monday, beating a record set the day before, the European climate service Copernicus says.
Monday was the hottest day ever measured by humans, beating a record set the day before, as countries across the globe continue to feel the heat, according to the European climate change service. Provisional satellite data published by Copernicus early Wednesday showed that Monday broke Sunday's mark by 0.1 degree Fahrenheit. Climate scientists say the world is now as warm as it was 125,000 years ago because of human-caused climate change.
'It's certainly a worrying sign coming on the heels of 13 straight record-setting months,' said Berkeley Earth climate scientist Zeke Hausfather, who now estimates there's a 92% chance that 2024 will beat 2023 as the warmest year on record. The former head of U.N. climate negotiations, Christiana Figueres, said 'We all scorch and fry' if the world doesn't immediately change course.
