The global average temperature in January 2024 was 1.7°C above pre-industrial levels for the month, meaning the planet has breached the 1.5°C benchmark for the past 12 months
The temperature records keep on coming. This January was the hottest on record, at 1.7°C above the pre-industrial average for the month, according to the European Union’s Copernicus Climate Change Service.This means there has been a 12-month period in which the average global surface temperature was more than 1.5°C above the 1850 to 1900 average, the period taken as the pre-industrial reference point.
At the Paris climate meeting in 2015, countries pledged to try to stop the global temperature rising more than 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels. Climate scientists will notat the Met Office, the UK’s national weather service. But with carbon emissions still rising, it seems certain that, on this measure, the 1.5°C limit will soon be breached, probably around 2030.It remains unclear why there has been such rapid warming in the past year or so and for how long it will continue.
