Hotter than My Contour: The Numbers Don't Lie

According to the European Union's Copernicus Climate Change Service the global mean temperature for the past 12 months was a scorching 1.52 degrees Celsius above the pre industrial average. That's like having a fever while trying to take a sexy selfie. And it's 0.64 degrees Celsius higher than the average from 1991 to 2020. Talk about raising the temperature!

No 'Break' for the Paris Agreement: Let's Keep It Cool People

Now before you start panicking this doesn't mean we broke the Paris Agreement. You know that thing that aims to limit global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius? Yeah we're not there yet but we're dangerously close. So let's all put on our ice packs and start reducing greenhouse gas emissions ASAP!

Tipping Points: More Than Just a Balancing Act

And trust me we don't want to see what happens when the Earth has a meltdown.

It's time to channel our inner Kardashian and start making some rapid reductions in greenhouse gas emissions. Staying cool is the new trend folks!
