Ocean surface temperatures hit record high as world enters 'uncharted territory,' scientists warn
by Chantal Da Silva
July 1, 2026
"Temperatures on the #ocean surface hit a record high in June, European scientists warned Wednesday, fueling fears of more dangerous heat waves this summer and fanning concerns over the escalating global #ClimateCrisis.
"Two separate services under the European Union’s #CopernicusEarth observation program — the Copernicus #ClimateChange Service and the Copernicus Marine Service — announced they had both independently confirmed the record temperatures.
"Carlo Buontempo, director of the Copernicus Copernicus Climate Change Service, warned that the rising temperatures could mark the 'beginning of a new phase.'
" 'With OceanTemperatures at these levels and #ElNiño on the horizon, we are likely to see more temperature records fall in the coming months,' Buontempo said in a statement Wednesday. El Niño is a naturally occurring climate cycle that sees the central and eastern tropical Pacific Ocean become warmer than usual for months at a time.
"The world could be heading into 'uncharted territory,' Buontempo warned.
"According to Copernicus Climate Change Service and the Copernicus Marine Service, global ocean temperatures outside the polar regions hit record levels on June 21, surpassing levels for the time of the year observed in both 2023 and 2024.
"The Copernicus Climate Change Service said temperatures reached 20.86 degrees Celsius, or 69.54 degrees Fahrenheit, that day, climbing above the 20.83 degrees Celsius, or 69.49 degrees Fahrenheit observed in 2023 and 2024.
"The Copernicus Marine Service meanwhile recorded temperatures at 21 degrees Celsius, or 69.8 Fahrenheit, beating previous records from 2023 and 2024 by 0.1 degree Celsius.
" 'It’s consistent with what we’ve known for a long time — that the planet is warming because we’re emitting vast quantities of #GreenhouseGasses, primarily from #FossilFuel burning, into the atmosphere and that’s stifling the ability of the planet to lose its heat to space,' Richard Allan, a professor of climate science at the University of Reading in the U.K., said in a phone interview."

The EU is close to reaching its climate goals despite a green backlash.
The EU is broadly within target to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 55% by 2030 compared with 1990 levels, a victory for Brussels as it faces growing calls to weaken its environmental agenda.
The majority of the emissions drop will come from the energy sector, according to a tracker published by climate think-tank Ember.

A native red seaweed abundant in Tasmanian coastal waters that is rich in the organic compound bromoform can lower methane emissions from livestock when added to fodder or grain. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/environment/2025/05/15/climate-change/australian-seaweed-farm-climate/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #environment #climatechange #seaweed #emissions #agriculture #environment #greenhousegasses #climatechange #australia

Every #billionaire who has ever screamed about over or under population. WERE THEMSELVES THE CAUSE!
Want more babies? Pay people more.
Want less babies? Increase #education especially for women, make #healthcare free, make family planning free.
Worried there are not enough resources and #climatechange is going to kill us? The top 1% produce 29% of all #greenhousegasses , the bottom billion produce 1%. Invest in science to create a green revolution.
They are sounding the alarm about problems they created and blaming the average individual with no power as being selfish.
A plan to introduce Bovaer into U.K. cattle feed to reduce methane emissions has prompted a wave of disinformation. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/commentary/2024/12/16/world/sanitizing-cow-burps/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #commentary #worldnews #agriculture #greenhousegasses #climatechange #cows #bovaer
Report: #Rural #America Produces #GreenhouseGasses on Behalf of #Urban and #Suburban Areas
"[O]n 24 April 2024, an article was posted on The Daily Sceptic claiming that CO2 emissions can’t warm the atmosphere because it is “saturated”. Given the recurring nature of this claim, below we will explain how CO2 functions as a greenhouse gas, then use scientific evidence to investigate recent claims about ‘CO2 saturation’.""
Nothing further, your honour.

The equivalent distance in the old Subaru would have emitted about 4.8 tonnes of CO2.
#Quebec mostly uses #HydroPower so the electricity generation to recharge the #Kona emitted about 155 kg of CO2 equivalent.*

@RustyBertrand Anyway, time to blast even more #greenhousegasses and #heavymetals into the air.
2024 could finally see greenhouse gas emissions start to decline

"We need to [search] under every stone to try find ways to mitigate #ClimateChange."
It's not just about #carbon, that's truly limited and inefficient thinking.
All #GreenhouseGasses are a problem, including #NitrousOxide (#N2O).
Just as we successfully acted to save the #Ozone layer, we can do Everything, Everywhere, All at Once to preserve what remains of our total #environment.
It's terrifying and critical but it's not hopeless, it's possible.
Restoring #ecosystems, not "just" removing #carbon, #methane, and other #GreenhouseGasses from the #atmosphere, and reducing or eliminating such #emissions, is vital to a sound Everything, Everywhere, All at Once #ClimateChange mitigation strategy.
There isn't a single aspect of #modernity that we can afford to overlook when considering how we can reduce or eliminate our releasing of #GreenhouseGasses into the #atmosphere including, but not limited to, #carbon, the most abundant of such #gasses #human activity produces.
Everything, Everywhere, All at Once includes improving our #building #materials, like #concrete and #cement.
I live near the beach in Southern California. Last night we had an intense rain event—including, I believe, #hail—that lasted maybe 20-30 minutes.
In August.
This weekend, a hurricane (which will likely have been demoted by then to a tropical storm) is going to hit us.

Why is Australia having such a warm winter? A climate expert explains
So is #ClimateChange a factor here? Yes. #Australia’s land areas have already warmed by 1.4℃ since pre-industrial times. This is the result of #humans #burning #FossilFuels and releasing #greenhousegasses.
The record winter warmth is part of a long-term upward trend in Australian #winter temperatures.
Canada is increasingly seen as a climate change laggard (see chart) and seriously needs to step up its game.
Proposed new #UK #oil and #gas fields would provide at most three weeks of energy a year | #FossilFuels | The Guardian
In other words they are a folly, producing only a marginal improvement in #energy security while at the same time massively expensive and contributing to #GlobalWarming.
