The World Meteorological Organization published a report on September 14, warning that the severest heat in history will be witnessed in the coming five years with a 98% possibility.

The report said that only 15% of the sustainable development goals for curbing temperature rise are being achieved as scheduled at present.

Saying that the current level of climate change mitigation policy will leave the global temperature rising by 2.8℃ in the present century, it stressed the need for instant efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

It also expressed concern that approximately 670 million people will face starvation in 2030 due to abnormal weather conditions.
