Oceans hit record high temperatures
The European Copernicus Observatory confirmed that the average surface temperature of the world's oceans reached an unprecedented record of 21.1 degrees Celsius on Saturday, surpassing the previous figure of 21.09 degrees registered in March 2024. This rise is linked to climate change and the strongest El Niño phenomenon ever recorded, which recurs every 2 to 7 years and contributes to ocean heating due to the accumulation of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. The increase in ocean temperatures, which typically peak in March and April, serves as evidence of growing pressure on marine ecosystems and coastal communities, as well as heightened risks of extreme weather events such as heavy rainfall and storms.
