- The global annual to decadal climate update report was recently issued by the World Meteorological Organisation (WMO).
- There is a 50 per cent chance that the world may temporarily breach 1.5°C of warming in one of the next five years.
- There is a 93 per cent chance that at least one year between 2022 and 26 will replace 2016 as the warmest year on record.
- The chance of temporarily exceeding 1.5°C has risen steadily since 2015, when it was close to zero.
- India could be among the few regions globally where below normal temperatures have been predicted for the year 2022 and the next four years.
- This may be because of the possible increase in rainfall activity in this decade.

- This will keep temperatures low.
