Data from the EU's Copernicus Climate Change Service shows global temperatures reached 1.65C above pre-industrial levels. This heat coincides with unprecedented ocean temperatures and the rapid development of a powerful El Niño pattern in the Pacific Ocean. While August was the warmest August ever recorded, it shares the overall monthly record across all calendar months. Scientists warn that the climate outlook remains poor as these warming patterns intensify.Why it mattersThe
