世界氣象組織：世界創最熱記錄

Average global temperatures in 2015 are likely to be the hottest ever recorded, according to the World Meteorological Organization.

The effects of climate change have led to global temperature increases of 1 degree Celsius above the pre-industrial era, according to the WMO.

"2015 is likely to be the hottest year on record, with ocean surface temperatures at the highest level since measurements began. It is probable that the 1 degree Celsius threshold will be crossed," said WMO Secretary-General Michel Jarraud. "This is all bad news for the planet."

The WMO says this is due to a combination of global warming and the El Niño oceanic phenomenon.

According to the WMO report, the five-year period from 2011-2015 has been the warmest on record "with many extreme weather events - especially heatwaves - influenced by climate change."

It says South America is having its hottest year on record, as is Asia, while Africa and Europe are having their second hottest.

"Greenhouse gas emissions, which are causing climate change, can be controlled," Jarraud said. "We have the knowledge and the tools to act."

The report comes just a week before world leaders meet in Paris for the 2015 United Nations Climate Change Conference.根據世界氣象組織，2015年全球平均氣溫可能將是有記錄以來最熱的。世界氣象組織說，氣候變化的影響已經導致全球氣溫比工業化時代前增加了1攝氏度。

世界氣象組織祕書長雅羅說：“2015年可能是創紀錄最熱的一年，海洋表面溫度是自從有測量以來最熱的水平。很可能會超過1攝氏度的門檻。這對於這個星球來說都是壞消息。”

世界氣象組織表示，這些都是全球變暖和厄爾尼諾大洋現象綜合作用的結果。

根據世界氣象組織的報告，從2011到2015的5年期間是有記錄以來最熱的5年，在氣候變化的作用下產生了很多極端天氣，尤其是熱浪。

世界氣象組織的報告說，南美2015年是創紀錄最熱的年份，亞洲也是如此，非洲和歐洲是有記錄以來第二最熱的年份。

雅羅說，“造成氣候變化的溫室氣體排放是可以被控制的，我們有這方面的知識和手段可以運用。”

這份報告發表一週之後，世界領導人將在巴黎召開2015聯合國氣候變化大會。
