Another data set showed Tuesday was even hotter. Monday was Earth’s warmest day on record, according to the Copernicus Climate Service.

He said any number of charts and graphs on Earth’s climate are showing, quite literally, that “we are in uncharted territory.”

Tuesday was hotter.“We have never seen anything like this before,” said Carlo Buontempo, director of Europe’s Copernicus Climate Change Service. New precedents have been set in recent weeks and months, surprising some scientists with their swift evolution: historically warm oceans, with North Atlantic temperatures already nearing their typical annual peak unparalleled low sea ice levels around Antarctica, where global warming impacts had, until now, been slower to appear and the planet experiencing its warmest June ever charted, according to new data.Īnd then, on Monday, came Earth’s hottest day in at least 125,000 years.

A remarkable spate of historic heat is hitting the planet, raising alarm over looming extreme weather dangers - and an increasing likelihood that this year will be Earth’s warmest on record.
