According to EU scientists, the global temperature record for January has been broken again, despite the weather phenomenon La Niña, which tends to cool the globe.
A year ago, EU researchers, through the Copernicus program, came up with news that was almost identical.
The ocean also experienced abnormally high temperatures in the first month of the year. And in the Arctic, there was exceptionally little sea ice, roughly on par with January 2018, when there was a record low.
This means that the January record has now been broken for the second year in a row.
