 📈 Ice loss of the Talèfre Glacier in the French Alps between 1967 and 2015 – Copernicus_EU 2️⃣
Instagram
CopernicusEU on Instagram: "❄️ Glaciers across all European regions experienced ice loss in 2024 - a key finding from the European State of the Climate 2024 report by the Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S).⁣ ⁣ In the Alps alone, glaciers lost an average of 1.2 metres of ice thickness in 2024. This continues a troubling decade-long trend, with the Alps remaining one of the fastest-retreating glacial regions in the world. 🏔️⁣ ⁣ This image, based on C3S data, shows the Talèfre Glacier in the French Alps. The extent visible in 2015 is significantly reduced compared to 1967.⁣ ⁣ #CopernicusEU⁣ #ImageOfTheDay⁣ #ESOTC2024"

January 2025 was the 18th month in a 19-month period in which the global-average temperature was more than 1.5°C above pre-industrial level. 🧵 With the emergence of La Niña conditions in the eastern equatorial Pacific, one would have expected January 2025 to be somewhat cooler than January 2024, when the El Niño event was nearing its peak intensity.🧵 image
January 2025 was the warmest January ever recorded. Last month was 1.75°C above the pre-industrial level and 0.79°C above the 1991-2020 average. The persistence of high temperatures underscores significant climate trends. Read the full #C3S Climate Bulletins:
