Actions and News: The American Meteorological Society (AMS) released its global climate assessment for 2024

Welcome to YouChoose, a blog about individual climate action.

Last month the AMS published the 35th annual climate report for the year 2024. The comprehensive report was put together by about 600 scientists worldwide and provides the latest update on land and ocean observations from ground and space, global climate indicators, and specific weather events. It covers regional and global climate.

The report, as well as previous ones, can be found at:

Actions and News: 2024 was warmest year on record according to NASA

Welcome to YouChoose, a blog about individual climate action.

According to a NASA report released in January 2025, the year 2024 was the warmest year on record. Although it is not expected for every year to be warmer than the previous one, temperature data show a clear trend.

I thought I pass this along as there is a brief video and nice 3D visualization that shows monthly global temperature differences (since 1880) with respect to the average temperature for 1951-1980.
