Our report focused on the temperature change between tropical monsoon climate type Kaohsiung, Taiwan (Plain terrain) and tropical rainforest climate type Mexico City, Mexico (Highland terrain, the height is 2274m) from year to year, and then analyzed through the four-year average temperature data of the globe and the Taiwan Meteorological Bureau website. Finally, it is found that the average temperature of the two places showed an upward trend from 2018 to 2020. In 2021, due to the La Niña phenomenon, the two places showed different trends, but still showed the crisis of global warming.
