2016 sets new global warming record

Sixteen of the 17 warmest years to date have been in this century, in parallel with the increase in CO2 emissions.
New global temperature records were set for 11 consecutive months. In Kuwait, on July 21, the thermometer rose to 54 degrees, the highest record in the history of the Eastern Hemisphere.
This is a dangerous situation, because the current average is 1.5 degrees from the limit set in the paris agreement.
