Amsterdam: The European Union’s Copernicus Climate Service has declared the summer of 2023 to be the hottest ever globally.

According to the Copernicus Service, global summer temperatures were 0.66 degrees Celsius warmer, bringing the global average temperature to 16.77 degrees Celsius. This temperature is the highest since records began in 1940.

Copernicus also announced that last month was the warmest August on record globally, hotter than all months except July 2023.

This summer has seen severe weather events, including heat waves in Europe, North America and Asia, and forest fires in Canada and Greece.

Experts blame the rising temperature of the atmosphere and oceans on greenhouse gas emissions and urge authorities to reduce the use of conventional fuels.

The second hottest summer globally was 2019 when the average temperature was 16.48 degrees Celsius.
