"Our latest data shows that planetary temperatures will be 0.6 degrees Celsius higher than the average temperature between 1961-1990. That means 2010 will be the warmest year since 1860. However, maybe 2010 will not become the hottest year in history, if the El Nino weather phenomenon declines early next year, or if a large volcano works, " Co's statement British Meteorological Agency stated.
According to BBC, the average temperature in 1998 reached 14.52 degrees Celsius due to the El Nino weather phenomenon - the warming of surface water in the eastern Pacific Ocean due to the release of heat in the ocean floor. into the atmosphere makes global temperatures rise. A few days ago, the British Meteorological Agency and the World Meteorological Organization jointly announced the first decade of the 21st century as the hottest decade in history.
