UN sounds alarm as temperature rises 

The United Nations officially recognized, two weeks ago, that the 38°C measured in Siberia in 2020 as a new record high for the Arctic, prompting the agency to sound "alarm bells" over climate change.

The World Meteorological Organization (WMO) reported that the tropical-like heat was recorded in the Russian town of Verkhoyansk in June 2020, recording the highest temperature ever above the Arctic circle of latitude.

The UN agency said this was the first time it had added record Arctic heat to its archive of extreme weather reports. This comes as the world is hit by an unprecedented wave of record temperature spikes, which have caused droughts, mega-fires, health issues, and exacerbated displacement and poverty.

"This new Arctic record is one of a series of observations reported to the WMO Archive of Weather and Climate Extremes that sound the alarm bells about our changing climate," WMO Chief Petteri Taalas said in a statement.
