2011-2020 is the Warmest Decade on Record

WMO

According to the World Meteorological Organization (WMO), the decade of 2011-2020 was the warmest on record, and 2020 could rival 2016 as the warmest year despite the supposedly “cooling” effect of La Niña.

Five Hottest Years Globally:

  1. 2016
  2. 2020
  3. 2019
  4. 2015
  5. 2017

“Record warm years have usually coincided with a strong El Niño event, as was the case in 2016. We are now experiencing a La Niña, which has a cooling effect on global temperatures, but has not been sufficient to put a brake on this year’s heat. Despite the current La Niña conditions, this year has already shown near record heat comparable to the previous record of 2016,” – WMO Secretary-General Prof. Taalas
