EU monitor says global temperatures were 1.75C above preindustrial levels, extending run of unprecedented highs

Climate scientists had expected this exceptional spell to subside after a warming El Niño event peaked in January 2024 and conditions shifted to an opposing, cooling La Niña phase. But the heat has lingered at record or near-record levels, prompting debate about what other factors could be driving it to the top end of expectations.

    No it’s literally global warming because the increased greenhouse gasses are creating a greenhouse effect causing global warming.
    Climate change is part of a normal cycle too, so calling it climate change camouflages the fact that it’s human made, and will never be able to get back to balance by itself as with natural changes in the climate.
