UNB, Dhaka :
It is very likely that 2017 will be one of the three hottest years on record, with many high-impact events, including catastrophic hurricanes and floods, debilitating heatwaves and drought.
Long-term indicators of climate change such as increasing carbon dioxide concentrations, sea-level rise and ocean acidification continue unabated, says the World Meteorological Organization’s provisional statement on the State of the Climate.
Arctic sea ice coverage remains below average and previously stable Antarctic sea ice extent was at or near a record low. The World Meteorological Organization’s provisional statement on the State of the Climate says the average global temperature from January to September 2017 was approximately 1.1degC above the pre-industrial era.
