In 2015, Earth experienced unprecedented heat, marking it as the hottest year since records began in the late 19th century. This surpassed the previous record set in 2014 by a significant margin. The NOAA and NASA reported that the average temperature for 2015 was nearly one degree above the 20th-century average. The primary cause of this temperature rise is attributed to increased carbon monoxide and other human-induced emissions. The heat records were felt globally, highlighting the accelerating pace of global warming.
