I have a new analysis over at The Climate Brink exploring how rates of warming have changed over the past century.

2024 was a record 1.60°C over the 1850-1900 IPCC pre-industrial baseline, using Copernicus data.

To be more precise, I got 1.598°C, so we'll have to wait and see whether Copernicus settles on 1.59°C or 1.60°C. Their official announcement will come out on Jan. 10, 2025.

Teach a man to fish, he'll contribute to the global overdepletion of the ocean.

November, 2024, came in at the second warmest in recorded history, at 1.62°C above the pre-industrial baseline.

Starting in June, 2023, there have now been 18 consecutive months above the pre-2023 record high, likely the hottest string of 18 months in the last 120,000+ years.
