The year 2023 has been officially declared the warmest year in recorded history, according to an article by David Knowles for Yahoo News. Scientists have reported that it was potentially the hottest in the last 125,000 years, with global temperature measurements indicating that every month since May was the hottest ever recorded. Alongside the heat, the year also saw record rainfall, flooding, and wildfires. The UK specifically experienced its second warmest year since records began in 1884, with Wales and Northern Ireland recording their warmest years. Meteorologists are warning that these are not isolated events and predict that 2024 is expected to be even hotter, potentially breaking the extreme temperature records set in 2023. The long-term warming trend is currently at an increase of 1.3°C, but with the added effect of El Niño, 2024 could become the first year to reach 1.5°C above the 1850-1900 average.
