With El Nino waning, the margins by which global average temperatures are surpassed each month should go down, Francis said.“The trajectory will not change until concentrations of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere stop rising,” Francis said, “which means we must stop burning fossil fuels, stop deforestation, and grow our food more sustainably as quickly as possible.”Under the 2015 Paris Agreement, the world set a goal to keep warming at or below 1.5 degrees Celsius since pre-industrial times.
The globe has now experienced 12 months with average monthly temperatures 1.58 degrees Celsius above the Paris threshold, according to Copernicus data.
