A World Weather Attribution report indicates that 2025 was one of the three hottest years on record, with global temperatures exceptionally high despite a cooler natural phase. Climate change, driven by fossil fuel use, intensified extreme weather events like heatwaves, droughts, storms, and wildfires, pushing millions towards adaptation limits. The report highlights that these extremes disproportionately affect vulnerable communities and that the three-year average temperature has now exceeded the 1.5C limit set by the Paris Agreement, underscoring the urgent need to reduce fossil fuel consumption.
