UN report on climate change 2022: According to NASA, 2022 was the 5th hottest year on record. While issuing a statement on climate change, NASA said that the situation is very worrying. Let us know the complete analysis of the American space agency NASA on climate change in 2022.
UN report on climate change 2022:
The average temperature of the Earth’s surface in 2022 could be the fifth-warmest year recorded since 2015 According to an analysis done by NASA, the US Space agency NASA described the situation as alarming.
Researchers from NASA’s Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS) located in New York reported that global temperatures in 2022 were 1.6 degrees Fahrenheit (0.89 degrees Celsius) more than the average temperature for NASA’s baseline time (1951-1980).
NASA Director Bill Nelson said, “This warming trend is a risk. The warming climate of our time is already causing a ripple the wildfires are escalating and hurricanes are becoming more powerful and drought is creating havoc, and sea levels are increasing.”
NASA report on climate change 2022:
Gavin Schmidt, director of GISS Gavin Schmidt, NASA’s leading center for modeling climate stated: “The warming trend is because human activities continue to pump huge amounts of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, and long-term planetary effects will also continue.” ”
The Arctic region continues to see the highest rates of warming almost four times higher than that of the average global temperature, as per a GISS study presented during the annual 2022 conference of the American Geophysical Union, and an additional study. There are many factors that can impact the average temperature during the year in question.
In fact, 2022 was among the warmest years on record, despite the third calendar year that was characterized by La Nina circumstances in the tropical Pacific Ocean. A separate, independent study conducted by NOAA National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) found that the global temperatures of 2022 were among the top six since the year 1880.
Climate change latest news update:
Human-driven greenhouse gas emissions increased in the year 2020 following an initial decline caused by the pandemic COVID-19. Recently, NASA scientists as well as international scientists found that the carbon dioxide emissions of 2022 were among the highest ever recorded.
NASA also found super-emitters from methane – a powerful greenhouse gas – by using earth’s Surface Mineral Dust Sources Investigation instrument which was unveiled in the year 2000 on board the International Space Station.
