Here's my visual explanation of why we have not yet reached 1.5°C even though 2024 was likely warmer than 1.5°C. 2024 shows us how close we are, but the underlying warming is still under 1.5°C.

2024 has recorded the highest temperature in any year since 1850 🌡🌍

This is the 11th year in succession that has equalled or exceeded 1.0°C above the pre-industrial average period

A number of centres released their estimates today:

2024: record-breaking watershed year for global climate
2024 was the warmest year on record globally and the first year that was likely more than 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels: a stark reminder global temperatures are continuing to rise.
