A new alarming record in the month of June
June 2024 was the hottest month ever recorded, surpassing the previous record set in June 2023. This information, provided by the Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S) of the European space programme, raises alarm bells about the global warming and its serious consequences.
A worrying trend:
The data from Copernicus reveal that since June 2023, every month has broken its own temperature record, meaning we have experienced 13 consecutive months of historic heat.
Figures that impact:
The global average temperature for June 2024 was 16.66 degrees Celsius, 0.67 degrees above the 1991-2020 average for the same month.
A planet at risk:
The consequences of global warming are becoming increasingly evident. Rising temperatures are causing extreme weather events such as heat waves, droughts, floods and forest fires, putting human life, ecosystems and food security at risk worldwide.
Europe also suffers:
The European continent is no stranger to this crisis. June 2024 was the second warmest June in European history, with temperatures exceeding the average by 1.57 degrees Celsius.

A call to action:
There is an urgent need to take drastic measures to combat climate change. The international community must work together to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and promote the transition to a sustainable economy.
What can we do?
We can all play our part in the fight against climate change. We can adopt more responsible consumption habits, reduce our energy use, use sustainable means of transport and demand that our leaders take decisive action to protect the planet.
The future of our planet is in our hands. Acting now is crucial to avoid a devastating future.
