The Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S) announced on January 8, 2020, '2019 was the second hottest year in observation history.' Below is a comparison of the temperature at a height of 2m above the surface in 2019 with the average from 1981 to 2010. The red area, which indicates that the temperature is higher than the past average temperature, covers the entire earth, indicating that the temperature is rising in almost all regions.

According to the C3S, the only record in the previous observations that was higher than in 2019 was in 2016, when an extreme weather event occurred due to the

El Nino event . Furthermore, it turned out that the 10 years from 2010 to 2019 were 'the hottest 10 years in observation history'. In addition, the average temperature over the past five years has been 1.1 to 1.2 degrees higher than before the Industrial Revolution, suggesting that such a rise in temperature is not a recent trend.

A special report from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) 's 1.5-degree special report states that `` to stop the rise in average temperatures that leads to rapid and irreversible changes in climate, we must limit global warming to 1.5 degrees.' ' It has been.

Also, it was already announced that June and July 2019 were the highest heat ever, but this announcement also revealed that December, the last month of 2019, is also the highest ever. Was. The average global temperature in December 2019 is the same as December 2015, and both months are the highest temperature in Thailand in observation history. Carlo Buontempo, director of C3S, commented, `` Not only is 2019 the second hottest ever, but many of the months of 2019 have set record highs for average temperatures. '' .

The C3S also notes that carbon dioxide is increasing globally. The figure below shows the average column concentration of carbon dioxide observed by the satellite, and it can be seen at a glance that it is increasing overall.

Michael Mann , director of the Center for Earth Systems Science at the Pennsylvania State University, told Mashable , an international news site: It cannot be explained without the effects of the resulting greenhouse gases, 'he said, saying that global warming due to greenhouse gases is responsible for the high temperatures.
