New Delhi: The World Meteorological Organization WMO, an organization of the UN, has released a report on climate change in the year 2021 regarding the changing weather and temperature around the world. In this report, greenhouse gas density, rising sea level, rising ocean temperature, and increasing acid in the ocean have been cited as the main causes of climate change. According to the UN agency, this shows that due to human activity, major changes are taking place in the land, ocean, and atmosphere. Due to this, there is going to be a bad impact on the development and the ecosystem. On Wednesday, the agency released a report titled WMO State of the Global Climate in 2021, which states that in the last seven years, 2021 has set a record for being the hottest year ever.
Let us inform you that this report has been issued by the World Meteorological Organization at a time when crores of people have been affected by the changing dangerous weather. The southern country is grappling with the deadly flood situation. At the same time, people in India and Pakistan are getting scorched by the scorching heat. It has been told that this report released by the UN agency will be used as a document in the UN Climate Change Conference talks to be held in Egypt this year. UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said that the report released by the agency can prove to be an aid in dealing with the problems of climate. The renewable energy transition has to be accelerated.
At the same time, the dependence of energy systems on fossil fuels has to be eliminated. Listing different extreme weather events around the world, the WMO states that it has caused losses of more than $100 billion in 2021. Also how food security has been seriously harmed. The global mean sea level has reached a new record high in 2021. There was an average increase of 4.5 mm per year from the year 2013-to 2021. This is a clear indication of how catastrophic global warming can prove to be for coastal areas.
