The Year 2023 Becomes The Hottest In NASA's Notes

JAKARTA Based on the results of an analysis by the United States Aeronautics and Space Agency (NASA) on the 2023 Earthmap, this year will be the hottest year ever recorded.

This was proven after scientists from the Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS) discovered an anomaly of the global surface temperature on the map. From the results of Goddard's visualization, the 2023 Earthmap is dominated by high temperatures with red and orange colors.

Scientists decided to compare the average temperature of the earth's surface by 2023 with the average basic NASA period from 1951 to 1980. The results show that the global temperature of 1.2 degrees Celsius is higher than the fundamental period.

From these findings, NASA Administrator Bill Nelson said that Earth is experiencing a climate crisis, a phenomenon related to global warming and climate change. According to Nelson, this problem needs to be addressed as soon as possible.

"From extreme heat, forest fires, to rising sea levels, we can see our Earth is changing. There is still a lot of work to be done, but President Biden and society across America are taking more action than ever before to reduce climate risks," Nelson said.

In line with the importance of efforts to reduce climate problems, Nelson said that NASA will continue to help by using a space point of view. This country's institution will provide valid climate data on Earth.

"NASA will bring important climate data to Earth that is understandable and accessible to everyone. NASA and the Biden-Harris Administration are working to protect the planet where we live and its people, for this generation and the next generation," Nelson explained.

In addition to observing the 2023 Earthmap, GISS scientists have also observed the Earth's surface temperature over the past ten years. From observations, the GISS concluded that the temperatures of the last ten years were the hottest temperatures ever recorded.

GISS director Gavin Schmidt said that the problem of warming up is something new and one of the causes is fossil fuel emissions. If this continues, the huge increase in heat waves and rainfall will be a threat.
