The UK Met Office predicts that next year will be one of the warmest on record.
It will be the 10th year in a row that the global temperature is 1C above average according to predictions.
The cooling effect of La Nia will probably end after three years, according to the Met Office.
The impact of human-caused climate change was noted.
Climate change is being driven up by scientific evidence.
To avoid the worst effects of climate change, governments around the world have pledged to cut emissions.
The world has warmed by 1.1C compared to the period before the Industrial Revolution when humans began burning fossil fuels.
The pre-industrial average temperature is 1.08C.
The hottest year on record was in 2016 when the weather phenomenon El Nio boosted global temperatures.
The past three years have been affected by La Nia, a weather pattern in the Pacific that lowers the global temperature.
The end of that effect is predicted to bring warmer conditions in parts of the Pacific and cause the global temperature to be warmer than in 2020.
It is not expected to be a record-breaking year because El Nio will not boost global temperature.
The world as a whole is warming at a slower rate than average.
The effects of La Nia will diminish next year. Richard Allan, professor of climate science at the University of Reading, said that the full-on gas pedal will cause warming over the coming year and continue into the future.
The UK had a temperature record of above 40C in the year 2022.
Climate change is predicted to cause devastating effects on humans and nature.
