<p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr">Arab Weather - The European Union climate change monitoring agency said on Monday that last month was the hottest <strong>June</strong> on record, reflecting a series of exceptional temperatures that could make 2024 the hottest year in history.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> You may also be interested in:</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> <a href="https://taqs.me/qfLG">Last June was the hottest month on Earth since temperatures began to be recorded</a> </p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"><img alt="" src="/sites/default/files/uploads-2020/2024%20%D9%82%D8%AF%20%D9%8A%D9%83%D9%88%D9%86%20%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%B9%D8%A7%D9%85%20%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%A3%D9%83%D8%AB%D8%B1%20%D8%B3%D8%AE%D9%88%D9%86%D8%A9%20%D8%B9%D9%84%D9%89%20%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%A5%D8%B7%D9%84%D8%A7%D9%82.jpg" style="width: 600px; height: 600px;" /></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><h2 style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> Every month since June 2023 has been ranked hottest on record</h2><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> The Copernicus Climate Change Agency noted in its monthly bulletin that every month since June 2023; That is, for 13 consecutive months, it was ranked the hottest on record compared to similar months in previous years.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> Recent data indicate that the year 2024 may surpass 2023 to become the hottest year since the beginning of records, due to climate change resulting from human activities and the El Niño climate phenomenon that raised temperatures to record levels this year. Climate changes will cause serious consequences around the world during 2024, including heat-related deaths in New Delhi, which witnessed a long and unprecedented heat wave, as well as among tourists in Greece.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> Frederik Otto, a climate scientist at the Grantham Institute at Imperial College London, said there is <strong>a &quot;good chance&quot;</strong> that 2024 will be the hottest year on record. She explained that the El Niño phenomenon is natural and will always come and go, but humans can stop burning gas and coal to reduce its effects.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> The El Niño phenomenon causes surface water temperatures in the eastern Pacific Ocean to rise, raising average global temperatures. With the effect of this phenomenon declining in the past few months, the world is now in neutral conditions ahead of the formation of a colder “La Niña” phenomenon later this year. Despite promises to limit global warming, countries have so far not succeeded collectively in reducing these emissions, resulting in temperatures rising steadily for decades.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> See also:</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> <a href="https://www.arabiaweather.com/ar/content/%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%AA%D8%BA%D9%8A%... change is turning into a dangerous monster and there are fears that it will devour the world in 2024</a></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> <a href="https://www.arabiaweather.com/ar/content/%D9%85%D8%AF%D9%8A%D9%86%D8%A9-...
