A new report analyzing climate data from May 2024 to May 2025 reveals that nearly half of the world's population endured additional 30 days of extreme heat due to human-induced climate change. Germany itself recorded 50 days classified as extreme heat, with 24 of those days attributable directly to climate change. Additionally, 2024 emerged as the hottest year on record, while January 2025 set a record for the hottest January. The report underscores the urgency of addressing greenhouse gas emissions from fossil fuels to mitigate further warming.
This is not a surprise or an accident the causes are well known and the impacts are devastating.
The continued burning of coal, oil, and gas has released and accumulated enough greenhouse gases to warm the planet by 1.3C over a 5-year average.
