Study Confirms Acceleration of Global Warming Over Past Decade

A recent study by the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research confirms with 98% certainty that global warming has accelerated over the past decade, with a warming rate of about 0.35°C per decade compared to under 0.2°C from 1970 to 2015. This rate is the highest since 1880. The study accounted for natural factors like El Niño and volcanic activity. Data from Copernicus and Berkeley Earth highlight that 2023-2025 temperatures exceeded 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels, marking a significant deviation from previous trends.
