The United Nations (UN) predicts that the “El Niño” phenomenon will begin earlier than expected, and its effects could exacerbate the consequences of global warming. According to the UN, the phenomenon will start before September, causing droughts in some parts of the globe and heavy rainfall with the possibility of floods in others. The increased frequency and intensity of “El Niño” in recent years are attributed to global warming resulting from human activity. The UN urges nations to take immediate action to reduce their carbon emissions and transition to renewable energy sources. Failure to do so could lead to catastrophic consequences for the planet, including the displacement of millions of people, failing crops, and the loss of biodiversity. The article serves as a wake-up call to all stakeholders to join hands in limiting the damage caused by global warming. It is time for individuals, corporations, and governments to act in unison to combat climate change before it’s too late.
