NEW: 2024 has just been confirmed as the warmest year on record, and the first to breach the 1.5C threshold. We used a ridgeline (Joy Division inspired) chart to visualise daily temperature anomalies since 1940. 2024 clearly stands out with 100% of its days above 1.3C and 75% above 1.5C.

But former AZ AG Mark Brnovich told Sean Hannity on AM radio yesterday that climate change is a neomarxist cult evidenced by a 1970s Time cover that showed the earth frozen and that it's only human arrogance to think our actions could impact climate. Touché! (sarcasm)

We haven't been "cooler than average" since 1975... so has the average also been changed to a higher temperature as well? Making the "higher than average" even higher yet? How is the average determined?

You know, this might mean more if accurate temperature records didn’t start as we were coming out of a period know as “The Little Ice Age” and didn’t include “The Year Without a Summer” in the early data sets.

People need to understand that humans causing climate change or not is the last decades debate. It's pointless to try and prevent climate change now it's going to occur. The action and money now needs to be to mitigate damage as much as possible.

Good chart, not only for the Joy Division reference. You may want to add an overlay line of the world population. And another with the level of industrialization/technological advancement. Because IMHO, Renewables alone won't be the solution.

Technically, we won’t know if 2024 exceeded the Paris limit for almost another decade. The Paris number for a given year is the average of a sliding 2-decade window surrounding that year (so 2015-2034, for 2024).

Despite the abundant evidence we are drowning in, the simpletons won't get on board until it affects them personally - they'll need a personal disaster before they'll agree to address the actual disaster. Keep up the great work informing the masses.

It oh!!! I can’t say that I wasn’t warned. It’s time for an adjustment to reality. Everything will be different from now on. Last summer was the longest, hottest summer ever. I’m going to get used to living in heat. With much respect to all. Good luck.

Sorry, which part? Bullshit that it happened or bullshit that it's not presented the way you think it should be? I'm honestly trying to comprehend what you're trying to convey. Do you have information that shows it wasn't a regional phenomenon?

Looks like "Unknown Pleasures", sounds like an "Atmosphere"/"Atrocity Exhibition"/"She's Lost Control" medley. In all seriousness, though, wasn't +1.5C considered "the point of no return" in terms of global warming? Is it effectively over for us at this point?

I think we have to look to the future and get that all the fairy stories are just that. Look out the window? Storms, extreme weather cycles. Spring flowers in December and birds nesting early? Some have been bought , others don't want to change? You can only go so far with dead lifeboat men. Lead?

Part 2 Most Americans belief it’s real But then vote for the guy who repeals, the laws which lower CO2 emissions. This attacking the global climate change missions.

Part 1 Climate change isn’t real says The Lying King, As fires burn LA and ashes fling, Record heat rises every year higher and higher, Sea levels rise and more and more fires! Ice caps melting and Polar bears have no ice floes, But the Lying King and Repugs says that’s just how it goes!

I love the TV series Silo. Is where a catastrophe hits the planet and they have to live in a silo to survive. They get a picture of life before and is upsetting. No walks outside, no fresh air, no views of the sky. Really makes u appreciate what we’ve got and should protect

Nothing to see here, folks. Move along nah. Just us coming out of the ice age and our climate finally normalizing, or the Earth tilting slightly on its axis - both REAL explanations conservatives have given me for global warming.

So hard to look at!!! I keep trying to imagine what it would’ve been like if the rightful person in 2000 had become president. Al Gore would’ve continued the wonderful work of Jimmy Carter on climate change. Instead… We are living in hell.

This is not a good outcome, but we've seen the sizzling temps in the ocean off Florida. How can anyone deny it's time for use to take sever measures to harness water and rebuild our aquifers. We know how to do this already...

"something something but i like sun". the fact people still ignore the data and the experts because those making profits damaging the planet paid others to say "no, not them", is past my understanding.

Nope, no pattern there! Definitely not. How dare you suggest that these extreme weather events are anything other than random occurrences.

This layout is really useful. Previously I hadn't seen the data laid out like this. It was more lines of years from Jan to Dec of average temperatures compared to the mean. This moves the data presentation forward. Appreciate you sharing this.

So, the problem is 1.5c sounds like such a small number. People hear that and it doesn't sound scary. We need a better way to explain to people the scope of the problem because as it is they just hear "winter won't be so cold"

that's why charts like this are useless for the purpose of ACTUALLY achieving a solution. people don't understand data the vast majority of people who share this kind of info-graphic are just social media addicts farming for likes. they never add any useful information, just "look how bad this is!"
