The European Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S) has reported that this year's June was the hottest on record.

This is reported by Reuters.

According to the agency, every month since June 2023, that is, 13 months in a row, has been considered the hottest on the planet since records began compared to the corresponding month in previous years.

The C3S data goes back to 1940, and scientists compared it with other data to confirm that last month was the hottest June since the pre-industrial period of 1850-1900.

The main cause of climate change is greenhouse gas emissions from the burning of fossil fuels, the article says.

For 12 consecutive months since June 2023, the average temperature in the world has been the highest on record, 1.64 degrees Celsius higher than the pre-industrial figure, C3S said.

The latest data suggests that 2024 could be the hottest year on record following anthropogenic climate change and the El Niño weather phenomenon, which pushed temperatures to record highs this year.

This year's May was also the warmest on record.
