According to the report by the European Union’s Earth Observation Programme (Copernicus), in 2024 we had an average global temperature of 1.6°C above the pre-industrial average, making it the hottest year ever recorded globally. It is worth noting that the Paris Agreement seeks to limit the increase in temperature to 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels.
It becomes clear that the results from last year raise concerns regarding measures related to climate change on a global level. In the middle of these data, we add tropical storms and heat waves that, among other situations, put the infrastructure of urban centers to the test and delay the development.
We cannot fail to consider the change in the USA chairman, providing incentives for the extraction of fossil fuels, withdrawing the country from the Paris Agreement and imposing challenges for COP 30 (United Nations Conference on Climate Change) to be held in 2025, in Brazil.
