The UN's latest climate report confirms 2025 was among the hottest years on record, with global temperatures 1.43°C above pre-industrial levels. The Earth's energy imbalance hit a 65-year high, with oceans absorbing most excess heat, accelerating ice melt, sea level rise, and extreme weather events. The report warns of long-term impacts and urgent need for action.
The UN's annual climate report confirms that 2015-2025 were the hottest years on record, with 2025 ranking as the second or third warmest. Greenhouse gases and ocean heat are at historic highs, causing rapid ice melt, extreme weather, and rising sea levels. The report warns of long-term impacts.
A European study has quantified how inequality increases temperature-related deaths. If Europe’s regions reached the lowest level of material deprivation, heat and cold-related mortality could fall by up to 30%, a major policy argument for targeted relief and poverty reduction.
The World Meteorological Organization and European agencies have released their 2025 State of the Climate findings saying at least 95% of Europe has recorded above-average annual temperatures, marine heatwaves and more than 1 million hectares burned by wildfires; glaciers and snow cover have lost mass and the Greenland ice sheet has contributed to sea level rise.
