"The average daily air temperature was the highest during the observation period and amounted to +26.9°C, which exceeded the previous record figure last year by 2.3°C," the observatory said.Recall, scientists of the Institute of Space Research. Goddard (GISS) NASA in New York recognised this July as the hottest July on record. As EcoPolitics previously reported, in early August, the EU climate change service Copernicus recorded a new record for the average daily global sea surface temperature (20.96°C). The oceans are soaking up heat from climate change, with catastrophic consequences for the health of the planet.
