The action of humans is the main cause of this phenomenon, as determined by meteorologists. By Joshua Alvarado A study by the National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI for its acronym in English) determined that there is a 97% chance that this is the hottest year in history. This is the result of the analysis of the monthly records of the first 8 months of the year. The results also indicate that August was the warmest month in history and that the period from the beginning of the year to the same month has the same characteristic. The phenomenon is repeated in the sea temperature. Meteorologists have determined that human forces are the causes of this phenomenon. It includes emissions of greenhouse gases, which in turn produce global warming. As a natural factor, the El Niño phenomenon stands out in the tropical Pacific Ocean. The average global surface temperature of the year to date for oceans and land was 0.84 degrees Celsius above the 20th century average. The current record has it in 2014. Taking a historical tour of temperatures, during the last 15 years the 13 hottest years have been recorded.
