The year 2026 is projected to be one of the hottest on record due to global warming and a strong El Niño phenomenon, according to a World Meteorological Organization report. The average global temperature from January to September 2026 was 1.47 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels, with further increases expected. Each of the last 12 years, including 2026, ranks among the hottest since measurements began around 1850. The report highlights the impact of greenhouse gases on ocean temperatures, ice melting, and rising sea levels. The Copernicus Climate Change Service indicates that 2026 will likely be the second year after 2024 to exceed the 1.5 degrees Celsius threshold set by the Paris Agreement. Ocean temperatures continue to rise, and global sea levels have reached a new record due to glacier melting and thermal expansion of water. This report precedes upcoming climate negotiations in Turkey.
