PARIS – 10 JAN - Global temperatures have exceeded critical warming thresholds over the past two years, with 2024 officially recorded as the hottest year to date, surpassing 2023, according to the Copernicus Climate Change Service. Although the 1.5°C limit set under the Paris Agreement hasn’t been permanently breached, the average warming over 2023-2024 exceeded this threshold, signaling an alarming trend fueled by human-driven climate change and extreme weather events worldwide.
From deadly wildfires in Los Angeles to catastrophic floods in Europe and Africa, the impact of rising temperatures cost lives and billions in damages. Scientists warn that every fraction above 1.5°C intensifies droughts, storms, and heatwaves, pushing ecosystems to a breaking point. Copernicus and climate experts urge immediate and decisive global action to avert further irreversible damage.
