Looking at decade averages, temperatures climbed 0.26 degrees Celsius from 2014 to 2023, said the study published in the journal Earth System Science Data. In that same period, average global surface temperatures reached 1.19C above the 1850-1900 pre-industrial benchmark for measuring a warming world. "Human-induced warming has been increasing at a rate that is unprecedented in the instrumental record," the study said. The 2015 Paris Agreement that resulted from a previous COP summit saw countries agree to cap global warming at "well below" 2C above preindustrial levels, while striving for the safer limit of 1.5C. But by far the primary driver of global warming was "greenhouse gas emissions being at an all-time high", the study said.
