These figures place next year just below the historical record of 1.55 \u00b0C recorded in 2024, considered so far the warmest ever documented.\n\nMet Office experts pointed out that, if these forecasts are met, 2026 would be the fourth consecutive year with temperatures exceeding 1.4 \u00b0C, a threshold that had not been surpassed before the recent thermal rebound. Adam Scaife, head of the global forecasting team, warned that this trend confirms how quickly the planet is approaching the 1.5 \u00b0C limit established as a critical reference in the Paris Agreement.\n\nThe United Nations Organization (UN<\/a>) has reiterated that global warming is closely linked to human activity, especially to the emissions of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide and methane, generated by the use of fossil fuels in transportation, industry, and energy generation.\n\n\n

The treaty obliges the signatory countries to review their emission reduction plans every five years and to strengthen adaptation strategies to face climate impacts.\n\nThe scientific community warns that exceeding the 1.5 \u00b0C threshold, even temporarily, significantly increases the risk of extreme weather events, loss of biodiversity, impacts on food security, and greater difficulties for adaptation. Each additional fraction of a degree, experts emphasize, aggravates the impacts and reduces the margin for maneuver to avoid irreversible damage.\n\nIn that context, international organizations insist on the urgency of accelerating climate actions, drastically reducing emissions, and moving towards net-zero emissions economies, if it is intended to prevent the coming years from consolidating a trend of extreme heat with profound consequences for the planet and future generations.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
