2023 was hottest year on record, says EU’s Copernicus climate change service
Growing greenhouse emissions also led to unusually high ocean temperatures, it adds

ATHENS (AA) – Just-concluded 2023 was the hottest year in recorded history, and likely beyond, the EU’s Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S) said on Tuesday in a report.
“2023 was an exceptional year with climate records tumbling like dominoes,” said Samantha Burgess, C3S’s deputy director, on X.
"Temperatures during 2023 likely exceed those of any period in at least the last 100,000 years," Burgess also said, adding that it also marked the first time on record that every day within a year exceeded a 1C temperature difference above the 1850-1900 pre-industrial level.
The report also pointed to growing greenhouse emissions leading to unusually high ocean temperatures.
