What’s in a number? The significance of the 1.5°C warming threshold and reporting on its breach in popular media
In 2024, the global average temperature reached 15.1°C, 1.6°C higher than before the industrial era (1850-1900). This is the first time that a calendar year has exceeded 1.5°C of warming. But focusing on a single year is not enough to provide information on long-term climate trends.

Different parts of the planet warm more quickly than others. That doesn’t mean climate change isn’t happening.
If you’re even a casual consumer of climate news, you probably know that some parts of the globe are warming more rapidly than others. Scientists have known for years, for instance, that the Arctic is heating up at a faster clip than the global average, and recently, the region made headlines after a study showed that the northernmost reaches of our planet are warming four times faster than the rest of the Earth.
