The global weather agency (OMM. Its General Secretary, Selest Saulo (Buenos Aires, 60 years), in this videoconference interviews interviewed the main results of the study, which highlights that 2024 has been recorded so far. But, in addition, the report reviews the growing effects on the planet of global warming. In this case, the multiplication of multiplication, popularity of the refusal Donald Trump or Zavier Miley develops in the world.
Ask. 2024 a year recordAnd it is the record year in terms of concentration in the environment of greenhouse gases. Is it possible to separate two problems?
Answer. Science has made it clear that greenhouse gases are a great responsibility for the global warming we see. And there is a perfect and strong documentation in this regard: unfortunately, human action that causes this warming.
P. However, there are still accents that still disconnect the two problems.
R. Yes, but as a organization of scientific and technical basis, OMM depends on the worldwide data, scientific evidence and works. IPCC, which is made of evaluations, Too much about it. There may always be disagreement accents, but they are discrete accents. The scientific consensus is clear and as an organization we put it towards scientific consensus.
P. That is, it is not a political matter, but they are shown in this report.
R. Yes, completely. To understand the planet we live in, science has provided us with a lot of devices for a better life. In this particular case, science warns us what is happening from this supervision to the climate, but we will coordinate around the world, but those countries are maintained. This is a highlight: This is the data from the countries, which are the data generated by the atmospheric and hydroological services of all countries used to evaluate this evaluation.
P. 2024 Heat Record is part of the exception or trend?
R. Unfortunately, this is a trend. The trend from sixties to this part clearly produces temperature disorders, which are on the rise. We highlight that in our report that all in the last 10 years is a relative temperature.
P. But the report also points out some of the unusual ones of 2023 and 2024 along with greenhouse gases, which are the main heating aspect.
R. Exactly, we will always talk about weather diversity because it is reality and it’s something that works with OMM a lot. The greatest force of atmospheric diversity is the phenomenon of one The child And, of course, when The child High temperatures are usually recorded, mainly in the Northern Hemisphere.
P. And this 2025 can identify another record without existence The child?
R. In principle, experts believe that the record does not expect the record, but the system is sinking into the heating tendency. However, records are like attention calls, they are like a fisherman. The trend is the background anxiety, which is important to highlight it. I think it works like a 2024 siren.
P. Because climate change is much higher than medium temperature records?
R. Of course, and we will point out in our report. There are many indicators and all of them, certainly all indicators are anxious. Those who identify the state of the oceans, through the height of the sea level, through the heat content in the sea or the acidization of water. Or the melting of glaciers, such as the ice surface in the Arctic and Antarctic. Or the amount of extravagant events … we are measuring many indicators and this is not a discrete event, because all the same direction is in the same direction and responds to the same physical phenomena, which is a continuous warming due to heating, greenhouse gases.
P. See where you are looking, climate change shows your face.
R. Exactly. We know that small island states have more worry indicators than others, such as the rising sea level. Or as an ocean acidization when we talk about ecosystems. Or like hot waves when we talk about health.
P. Are we at the time of climate change signs that are very clear?
R. Completely. It is a little harder to explain to anyone what is the disorder of 1.55 degrees than the pre -industrial levels. Many people say: What is it? That is why serious events in our report are documented. People feel. It is experienced by less developed and more developed countries, although with different consequences due to response and restoration capacity. What is requested in the report is that a little abstract variable is associated with the concrete facts of reality, which has completely affected the entire planet. There is not a single place on the planet, there is no continent, where you have nothing to do here. From Antarctica to North America, even in the small island states of Pacific … certainly all their official records are affected by a serious extraordinary event.
P. In this case it does not seem difficult to understand that the world’s rejection is progress?
R. Yes, it is difficult to understand what reality is. But it does not touch OMM to get to the ground. He has to show evidence, and it will keep the UME run and it is historically.
P. Inspire that the data comes from national weather services. Do you worry that Trump can reduce information from federal agencies with returning to the White House?
P. I hope it doesn’t happen. OMM will remind the UN system this year 75 years, but we have 152 years old as a company. And how have you been out for 152 years? For the understanding of countries with the importance of sharing atmospheric data. Because time and climate do not understand geographical boundaries. A phenomenon associated with air circulation movement. There was a very early understanding of 152 years ago, which is a disadvantage for countries if not shared information. For example, I came from Argentina, and the cold front that affects Chile, at some point it affects Argentina, and quickly reach Uruguay, and Brazil. And the data exchange system is not very exposed to one and really prevent the population, to protect the population and take action. The idea of exchange information is very old, and has come out of all kinds of world conditions and crises.
P. President Javier Miley was in doubt with climate change and withdrew the Argentine delegation at the final weather summit. What opinion does that stage have?
R. I hope the country’s sovereign decisions are reflected in the light of what is happening. For example, Argentina has suffered a very terrible flood in Bahia Blanka city, killing 16 people. It was collected in the studies of Argentine colleagues and the entire world, some sectors in the center and the Eastern Argentina can cause greater harm to climate change. And it was recorded there. I hope that the country will be able to prepare for well. Countries that best prepare are also likely to find opportunities in changing environment. And rejecting the opportunity to prepare makes me feel that it doesn’t help me.
P. In 2024, the barrier of 1.5 degrees of heating was exceeded for the first time in relation to the pre -industrial level. Can we consider the Paris Agreement violated?
P. No, because the Paris deal takes an average temperature of 20 years. Does not make an average of 20 people a year. But what does it do is to rotate the sirens in a tendency to move upward.
P. What messages should the Society of World Weather Status be left with 2024?
R. I think we should keep the idea that the indicators are terrible, because they all intensify; The emissions of greenhouse gases, the melting of glaciers, the increase in temperature, the amount of serious events. But, in addition, all the indicators of climate physics translate the effects on people and communities. This translation on the effects is associated with all kinds of problems related to health, food security, water access and development. What happens to us in a physical system like the weather and what happens to us as people who live in globalization society.
