"Climate change is the most pressing problem humanity will face this century. Tracking how the climate is actually changing has never been more critical. "
"The #WMO’s report on 2024, the hottest year on record, sets out a trail of destruction from #ExtremeWeather that took lives, demolished buildings and ravaged vital crops. More than 800,000 people were displaced and made homeless, the highest yearly number since records began in 2008.
The report lists 151 unprecedented extreme weather events in 2024, meaning they were worse than any ever recorded in the region. "
