NPR: On Nov. 8, the World Meteorological Organization published a press release summarizing the findings from a report on global climate from 2011-2015.
The report identified the last five years as the hottest on record, with 2015 marking the first year with global temperatures more than 1 degree Celsius above the pre-industrial era. Arctic sea ice declined, sea levels rose and many extreme weather events occurred — events that were "made more likely as a result of human-induced (anthropogenic) climate change."
The same day the press release was published, Donald Trump was elected as the next president of the United States.
