Geneva, Switzerland: A fresh climate report confirming that multiple global heat records were shattered last year shows "a planet on the brink", the UN chief warned Tuesday. "Earth is issuing a distress call," Antonio Guterres said, concluding that the report by the UN's World Meteorological Organization showed that fossil fuel pollution was causing spiralling "climate chaos".
Global heat records were "smashed" last year, the UN confirmed Tuesday, with 2023 rounding out the hottest decade on record, as heatwaves stalked oceans and glaciers suffered record ice loss.
The United Nations' World Meteorological Organization issued its annual State of the Climate report, confirming preliminary data indicating that 2023 was by far the hottest year ever recorded.
And it came at the end of "the warmest 10-year period on record", the WMO report said.
UN chief Antonio Guterres said the report showed "a planet on the brink".
