flag The UK Met Office predicts 2026 will likely exceed 1.4°C of warming, continuing a trend of record heat driven by emissions and weakened carbon sinks.

flag The UK Met Office forecasts that 2026 will likely see global temperatures exceed 1.4°C above pre-industrial levels, marking the fourth straight year above that threshold, with a central estimate of 1.46°C. flag This follows 2024, the hottest year on record at 1.55°C above pre-industrial averages, and 2025, which reached 1.48°C. flag Despite shifting El Niño and La Niña conditions, rising greenhouse gas emissions and weakened carbon sinks continue to drive warming. flag Scientists warn repeated annual breaches of 1.4°C increase risks of temporarily exceeding the Paris Agreement’s 1.5°C limit, though long-term goals remain possible with sustained emissions cuts.
