The Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S) is reporting the warmest March in Europe and lowest Arctic winter sea ice in its latest monthly climate bulletin reporting on the changes observed in global surface air and sea temperatures, sea ice cover and hydrological variables.

The EU’s Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S) is warning that global warming exceeded 1.5C for a full year.

In a new report published today, the House of Commons Environmental Audit Committee points to research that the Arctic is warming four times faster than the rest of the globe.

Antarctic sea ice extent has reached a new record low – the sea ice is more than 1 million square kilometers (386,000 square miles) below the previous record low maximum set in 1986.

A new study published in Nature Communications by an international team of scientists shows that an irreversible loss of the West Antarctic and Greenland ice sheets, and a corresponding rapid acceleration of sea level rise, may be imminent if global temperature change cannot be stabilized below 1.8°C, relative to the preindustrial levels.

The record-breaking heatwave experienced across Europe in 2022 will be considered an “average” summer by 2035, even if countries meet their current climate commitments so far agreed in negotiations under the 2015 Paris Agreement, according to the latest data from the Met Office Hadley Centre, commissioned by the Climate Crisis Advisory Group (CCAG).

The World Meteorological Organisation is warning that the summer of 2020 will leave a deep wound in the cryosphere, with a major impact on ice shelves and glaciers in the Northern hemisphere.

Scientists from the Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service (CAMS) at the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) have revealed that summer wildfires in the Arctic Circle exceeded last year’s records for CO2 emissions, while southwestern USA experienced extreme fire activity in August.

UK scientists are warning that a staggering loss” of 28 trillion tonnes of Earth’s ice could see sea level rise reach a metre by the end of the century, triggered by melting glaciers and ice sheets.

The St. Patrick Bay ice caps on the Hazen Plateau of northeastern Ellesmere Island in Nunavut, Canada, have disappeared, according to NASA satellite imagery.
