As the average global temperature rose significantly until last month, the possibility of this year being the hottest year in history has virtually become a reality.
In particular, it is expected to exceed the 1.5 degrees limit set by mankind for the first time.
However, as former President Trump, who claims climate change as a fraud, has succeeded in retaking power, humanity's joint response has faced a crisis.

The cause of Spain's downpour, which was 20 months' worth of rain in just eight hours, was the warmer Mediterranean than usual.
[David Pinot, professor at the Polytechnic University of Catalonia, Spain] There is a very warm base near the surface. It was created by the warm Mediterranean Sea.]
In Japan, abnormal high temperatures continued, and the first snow fell on Mount Fuji for the latest time in the 130-year observation history.
In fact, the average global temperature rose by 1.65°C last month, the second-highest in history as of October.
Now, unless there is a dramatic low temperature phenomenon in the remaining two months, this is expected to be the hottest year since last year.
In particular, the deterrence target of 1.5°C agreed to in the 2015 Paris Agreement is expected to collapse for the first time in history.
1.5℃ is the limit line set by mankind to prevent the Earth from entering an uncontrollable state.
[Carlo Buon Tempo Copernicus Climate Change Service: (This year's global average temperature) is almost certain to exceed the 1.5℃ threshold for the first time ever.]
However, with former President Trump, who claims that climate change is a fraud, returning to power, there has been a darker shadow over humanity's joint response.
Trump has already vowed to withdraw from the Paris Agreement again following his first term in office.
It has also explicitly shown antipathy to inflation-reduction laws focused on electric vehicles and renewable energy.
Instead, he promised to revive fossil fuels on a large scale, which received full support from the oil and gas industries.
[U.S. President-elect Donald Trump / Last month: We will quickly achieve energy independence. We will be mining, mining, mining, and drilling. We'll drill, drill, mine, mine, mine.]
The UK's non-profit environmental organization pointed out that if Trump's policy is implemented, greenhouse gas emissions in the atmosphere will increase by 4 billion tons.
