This is an increase from 1.14 degrees Celsius observed between 2013-2022, according to the second annual Indicators of Global Climate Change report led by the University of Leeds, UK.

This showed that global warming caused by humans is increasing at a rate of 0.26 degrees Celsius per decade.

Professor Piers Forster, director of the Priestley Center for Climate Futures, said: "Our analysis shows that the level of global warming caused by human action has been increasing over the past year, even though climate action slowed the increase in greenhouse gas emissions. Is." At the University of Leeds.

"Global temperatures are still rising in the wrong direction and faster than ever before," Forster said.

The report, published in the journal Earth System Science Data, attributes the increased rate of warming to persistently high greenhouse gas emissions, equivalent to 53 billion tonnes of carbon dioxide (CO2) per year.The report says high levels of greenhouse gas emissions are also affecting Earth's energy balance: Ocean buoys and satellites are tracking unprecedented heat fluxes of up to 50 percent more than the long-term average into the oceans, ice caps, soils and atmosphere. Have been.

"Fossil fuel emissions account for about 70 percent of all GHG emissions and are clearly the main driver of climate change, but other sources of pollution from cement production, farming and deforestation and cutting sulfur emissions levels are also contributing to warming. Is,” Forster said.

The report said that while 2023 proved to be the hottest year on record, the record high temperatures were the result of natural climate variability, particularly El Nino.

In addition, the researchers said about 200 gigatons (billion tons), or about five years' worth of current emissions, still need to be emitted before reaching the 1.5°C limit above the pre-industrial average.
