This peak surpassed the previous July milestone of 20.89°C. The spike in temperature is largely driven by long-term, human-caused climate change combined with developing El Niño conditions in the tropical Pacific.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/insight-today--6633039/support.Don’t miss our latest episodes! follow us to stay updates news everyday.
