Supplement: State of Climate Services 2024 Supplement: Significant Weather Climate Events 2024 The clear signs of human-induced climate change reached new heights in 2024, which was likely the first calendar year to be more than 1 5°C above the pre-industrial era, with a global mean near-surface temperature of 1 55 ± 0 13 °C above the 1850-1900 average
- WMO Global Annual to Decadal Climate Update (2025-2029)
The WMO Global Annual to Decadal Climate Update (2025–2029) projects that global temperatures are expected to continue at or near record levels in the next five years, increasing climate risks and impacts on societies, economies and sustainable development
- WMO issues new guidelines on evaluation of weather and climate extremes
Knowledge of weather and climate extremes is critically important, not only for climate science, but also for practical purposes For example, when designing a building or a bridge, it is essential to know, based on past observations, how fast the wind speeds in a given geographical area could actually reach
- Climate change - World Meteorological Organization
Climate change is the term used to describe changes in the state of the climate that can be identified by changes in the average and or the variability of its properties and that persists for an extended period, typically decades or longer

Video About the State of the Climate Update for COP series The WMO State of the Global Climate report focuses on key climate indicators – greenhouse gases, temperatures, sea level rise, ocean heat and acidification, sea ice and glaciers
- State of the Global Climate 2023 - World Meteorological Organization
The State of the Global Climate 2023 report shows that records were once again broken, and in some cases smashed, for greenhouse gas levels, surface temperatures, ocean heat and acidification, sea level rise, Antarctic sea ice cover and glacier retreat
- Global Climate Observing System (GCOS)
The Global Climate Observing System (GCOS) is co-sponsored by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO), the Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (IOC-UNESCO), the United Nations Environment Programme (UN Environment), and the International Science Council (ISC) It regularly assesses the states of global climate
