Last month was the world’s warmest February in modern times, the EU’s climate service says, extending the run of monthly records to nine in a row.
Each month since June 2023 has seen new temperature highs for the time of year.
The world’s sea surface is at its hottest on record, while Antarctic sea-ice has again reached extreme lows.
