Big rise in world temperature expected

RAPID growth in the world’s temperature is expected to return in the next few years, scientists warned today.

Big changes to climate are now underway with the natural warming of water temperatures, also known as El Nino, and greenhouse gases pushing global temperatures to a record high.

Met Office spokesman Professor Adam Scaife said the system was now at a “turning point” with major changes expected to happen at one.

He added: “A lot of those things are natural, we’ve had El Ninos when we were cavemen, that’s been going on a long time.

“However, they are now occurring on top of the influence coming from man’s activity, so when they occur, when an El Nino comes and raises the global temperature, that is the icing on the cake, that is the extra bit that creates a record.”

World leaders will be meet in Paris this November for talks on climate change and environmental responsibility.
