Ocean temperatures hit a record high in 2025, with ocean heat content rising by about 23 zettajoules — roughly 210 times humanity’s annual electricity use.
Because oceans absorb around 90% of excess heat from greenhouse gases, the increase is a stark signal of global warming, driving sea-level rise and extreme weather.

Global fossil fuel emissions are set to hit a new high in 2025 and curbing warming under 1.5 degrees Celsius from preindustrial levels would now be essentially “impossible,” according to new research. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/environment/2025/11/13/climate-change/global-fossil-fuel-emisisons/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #environment #climatechange #emissions #climatechange #parisagreement #globalcarbonbudget #earthsystemsciencedata #elnino
