World's Hottest Day Record Broken in 24 Hours

  • On July 22, the global average temperature hit a record high of 17.15°C, surpassing the previous day's record of 17.09°C.
  • These unprecedented temperatures follow a series of monthly heat records, with every month since June last year being the warmest on record.
  • C3S data indicates that global temperatures are now the highest they have been in around 125,000 years due to climate change driven by fossil fuels and deforestation.
  • Scientists warn that we are in uncharted territory and expect new records in the coming months and years.
  • The urgency for G20 nations to adopt policies for renewable energy and phase out fossil fuels is more critical than ever to avoid catastrophic climate impacts.
