2023 is officially the hottest year ever recorded, and scientists say "the temperature will keep rising"

That's grim.

While we are still trying to lower carbon emissions, the global community should start planning for how to cope with a hotter planet, because it will happen no matter what our choices are in the foreseeable future.

It's the end of the world as we know, and i feel overworked.

This is the best summary I could come up with:

The European Union's Copernicus Climate Change Service announced the milestone after analyzing data that showed the world saw its warmest-ever November.

"The extraordinary global November temperatures, including two days warmer than 2ºC above preindustrial, mean that 2023 is the warmest year in recorded history."

That difference between pre-industrial times and today puts the world dangerously close to crossing the 1.5 degrees Celsius global warming threshold that scientists have warned about for years.

The continued warming means extreme weather events — which have already worsened — will become even more frequent and intense, exacerbating the damage and loss of life from droughts, flooding, hurricanes and wildfires.

Copernicus said that the average sea surface temperature for ocean waters between 60ºN and 60ºS — roughly between the southern tip of Greenland to just below South America — was the highest on record, about 0.25 degrees Celsius warmer than the last record-breaking November, in 2015.

The World Meteorological Organization, an agency of the United Nations, reiterated the warning at the U.N.'s COP28 climate summit just days ago, saying that the extreme conditions experienced this year have "left a trail of devastation and despair."
