NASA "2017년은 역사상 2번째 더웠던 해"
Another year, another unwanted climate record.
NASA announced Thursday that 2017 was the second-hottest year since records began 138 years ago.
Won Jung-hwan has the details.

Last year was the second hottest year on record according to NASA, and the third hottest year on record according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Association. The two organizations calculate world temperatures in slightly different ways.
Both agencies said the average global surface temperature last year was only slightly below that of 2016, the hottest year on record.
2016 saw temperatures nearly one degree Celsius higher than the previous century's average.

The record-breaking temperatures in 2016 were fueled largely by El Nino, a weather pattern where a large area of warm water develops in the central Pacific, causing higher regional temperatures.
But 2017 was warm even without El Nino's help.

Scientists say the rising temperatures are the consequence of 40 years of global warming, resulting from human activity such as burning fossil fuels and cutting down forests.

Scientific consensus predicts average global temperatures to rise by as much as 3 degrees Celsius by 2050,... leading to rising sea levels and an uptick in extreme weather events. Korea and other countries in the mid-tropical region will experience a much longer summer monsoon season as a result of the rising temperatures.

Total NONSENSE..! For it to be the warmest year, Not only does it require that Summer is very hot, but the Winters must also average out as warm. Not so, , , because most Countries have experienced extremely cold Winters with Snow falls and some of the lowest temperatures in decades. We have had enough of this warmest year nonsense..!
