The year 2024 has been confirmed as the warmest on record globally since 1850, highlighting the urgent need for decisive action against climate change, according to the EU-funded Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S).
This year also marks the first time the average global temperature has exceeded 1.5 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels, a critical milestone outlined in the Paris Agreement, as stated by the European climate body in a recent press release.
