How did climate change specifically exacerbate the severity and frequency of extreme weather events in 2024?

The WWA report connects the 41 extra days of dangerous heat to human-caused warming, emphasizing that this represents 10% of the warmest temperatures between 1991 and 2020. The report further demonstrates how climate change amplified numerous extreme weather events, including devastating floods and the intensification of Hurricane Helene.

What are the immediate implications of 2024 exceeding the 1.5-degree Celsius warming threshold, considering the official definition uses a 20-year average?

The global average temperature in 2024 exceeded the pre-industrial level by more than 1.5 degrees Celsius for the first time on record, according to Copernicus. However, the Paris Agreement's 1.5-degree target is based on a 20-year average, meaning a formal declaration of exceeding this limit won't be possible for years.

What are the immediate consequences of exceeding the 1.5°C global warming target, and how urgently do these necessitate changes?

The global average temperature increase is exceeding the 1.5°C target set in the 2015 Paris Agreement, with scientists predicting it will also surpass the 2°C limit. This is based on current trends and data showing a 0.8% increase in CO2 emissions in 2024, with no sign of emissions peaking. The consequences include more frequent and intense extreme weather events.

What specific factors contributed to 2023's record-breaking global temperatures, exceeding even the impact of El Niño and surpassing previous records?

The year 2023 was exceptionally hot, with a global average temperature 1.48 degrees Celsius above the pre-industrial average, exceeding the previous record by 0.2 degrees. This is significant as it approaches the politically crucial 1.5-degree limit. Scientists are investigating why, despite the El Niño phenomenon's waning influence, temperatures remained exceptionally high.

How might the incoming Trump administration's actions impact the feasibility and long-term success of these climate goals?

These goals, lauded by environmental groups, include a 35% reduction in methane emissions by 2035. However, the incoming Trump administration is expected to reverse these policies and potentially withdraw from the Paris Agreement. The US is the world's second-largest emitter of greenhouse gases and largest producer of fossil fuels, making this commitment crucial but challenging to achieve.

How does the current methodology for determining the 1.5-degree Celsius warming threshold impact the urgency of climate action?

While 2024's temperature exceeded the 1.5-degree threshold, the official determination uses a 20-year average. The IPCC projects reaching this average around 2030, aligning with the proposed 10-year assessment, which would still necessitate a five-year wait for confirmation.

How did climate change specifically affect the intensity and likelihood of Cyclone Chido, and what are the immediate consequences?

Grantham Institute and Climate Central analyses conclude that human-caused climate change intensified Cyclone Chido, elevating it from a Category 3 to a Category 4 storm. This intensification is attributed to the increased atmospheric carbon dioxide levels, resulting in significantly higher destruction.
