The head of the UN warns: The era of boiling has arrived, July the hottest month

The Secretary General of the United Nations Organization (UN), Antonio Guterres, said on Thursday that the month of July this year will be the hottest since the measurement of temperatures began.

Guterres said that "we don't need to wait until the end of the month, unless a small ice age appears in the next few days" for July 2023 to break all records.

"Climate change is here. It's terrifying. And this is just the beginning," Guterres told the media in New York.

“The era of global warming is over; now the era of global boiling has arrived", he emphasized.

The first three weeks of July were the warmest on record, and 2023 could break 2016's record as the hottest year on record, according to Chris Hewitt, director of climate services at the World Meteorological Organization.

According to the data, the hottest day was July 6, with a global average temperature of 17.08 degrees Celsius, closely followed by July 5 and 7.

Guterres underlined that human scientists believe that humanity is responsible for this and that the only surprise in all this is the speed of change.

He estimated that this summer has been brutal for much of North America, Asia, Africa and Europe, calling it "a disaster for the whole planet".

"The consequences are clear and tragic: children are being swept away by floods, families are fleeing fires, workers are fainting from scorching temperatures," said the UN chief.

He repeated calls for major and immediate action, and sharply criticized the fossil fuel industry.

"The air is unbreathable, the heat is unbearable and the levels of profit from the fossil fuel sector and not fighting climate change are unacceptable"./REL
