Global temperatures in 2023 have broken records, with November setting a new high. The year is expected to be the hottest on record, driven by El Niño and long-term warming. Carbon pollution and billion-dollar disasters in the U.S. have also reached record levels. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) is virtually certain that 2023 will be the warmest year on record. Experts warn that 2024 could be even hotter, with concerns about the world's willingness to address the climate crisis.
Want to know what a world with 1.5 °C of global warming looks like? The last several months have already given us a taste as 2023 barrels towards an almost certain new annual record, that may itself exceed 1.5 °C. https://t.co/C4EW8sRxDC https://t.co/S1tgKzdE9a

Here are five key things to know about what will almost certainly be Earth’s hottest year on record: https://t.co/1WPMYgXxec #climatematters via @ClimateCentral https://t.co/mNRxXAqj5Z
The year 2023 will be remembered for being the hottest on record. Unfortunately, the world’s willingness to address what could be the defining challenge of the century remains in doubt, laments @RichardHaass. https://t.co/2koXUZghH8
2023 was the hottest year on record. Next year could be even hotter https://t.co/tojO3tUcYy
Among other things 2023 appears to have been Peak Climate. I don’t think you’re going to hear people talking much about greenhouse gases over the next few years
NOAA "virtually certain" 2023 will be the warmest year on record https://t.co/NWoWnZULVl
WaPo admits 2023 temperature spike is not emissions: "The climate pattern El Niño that has pushed the planet to record warmth over the past six months is nearing its peak, potentially as one of the strongest El Niño events observed over the past 75 years, new data show." I… https://t.co/e9tkFKcxZr

There is almost a 100 percent chance that 2023 will be the hottest year ever recorded, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) announced https://t.co/UYT4sybjzX https://t.co/QwMBqH5sIn
November global temperature record seals the deal -- 2023 (long heavily favored) is gonna be Earth's hottest year on record ... until 2024. https://t.co/aM6Vxf9E9W
2023 has been a record year for carbon pollution, global temperatures, and U.S. billion-dollar disasters: https://t.co/qjYbYM2xwi #climatematters via @ClimateCentral https://t.co/zX8Yh72GUY
Climate records were smashed over and over in 2023, and while official numbers won't be confirmed until January, this year was almost certainly the hottest ever recorded 👇 https://t.co/qrTbAhsAfM
Yet another shocking/not-shocking global monthly temp record in Nov, as stored ocean heat released by El Niño spikes atop long-term warming. Expect more monthly records into early 2024, after which odds of a new La Niña event start to go up. @CC_Yale https://t.co/B89Kxdwo5L
