From June 2023 to June 2024, Earth’s air and ocean surface temperatures surged, consistently breaking records set in recent years. Although July 2024 saw a slight dip, marking the end of a 13-month streak of record heat, the overall trend of rising temperatures continues, largely driven by climate change. Factors like the El Niño phenomenon, increased solar activity, and rising methane levels have all contributed to these extreme temperatures. As we approach critical global warming thresholds, the need for accelerated climate action has never been more urgent.
