September second warmest as temperatures stay above 1.5°C
Original: Global temperatures remain over 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels during second warmest September
Global temperatures remained more than 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels during what was the second warmest September on record, according to the Copernicus Climate Change Service. The reading shows the planet continues to breach the threshold that the Paris Agreement aims to avoid, even as the record-breaking streak of recent months eases slightly. Observers point to the finding as fresh evidence that warming is not slowing.
Why now: Fresh climate monitoring data shows global temperatures still exceeding the key 1.5°C warming threshold, sustaining concern about the pace of climate change.
