"And what is driving it on one hand is the ocean. Because the ocean is still very warm and the Pacific is cooling down. But we have a positive anomaly in the Indian Ocean, in the North Atlantic, in the Mediterranean, and so on. And more importantly, what’s happening in Antarctica. So a good part of Antarctica is much warmer than usual for this time of the year. And so when you sum that up into the global average, this actually, drives the average up."

15. SOUNDBITE (English) Carlo Buontempo, Copernicus Director:
"Now, if our goal is to keep, as we promise in the international agreement set in Paris in 2015, to keep the global temperature below two degrees and aspire to keep it below 1.5, well, this is not the good news because in a sense, over the last 12 months we have been already above 1.5. It’s a slightly different definition. So we don’t expect to actually breach the terms of the Paris Agreement until the 2030s. But the more, you know, with this warming that we have seen and that in all likelihood will continue in the next few months and years. Well, we are approaching that limit. And so it becomes more and more urgent, if that’s our goal, to limit the emission of greenhouse gases, if we want to maintain the planet within that boundary."

"It’s useful to understand how much and how fast the climate is changing. But ultimately, what is biting us back is not the global mean temperature, because nobody leaves in the global mean. It’s really what’s happening in our backyard and what’s happening into our rivers, our mountains and so on."
