The growth rate of greenhouse gas concentrations was higher than ever before in 2024. Globally the year was once again the hottest year on record and sea ice remained low.<\/h3>
Atmospheric CO2 concentration increased by 3.5 ppm, the fastest increase ever measured. Concentrations rose 38% faster than the
previous year and 60% faster than the average 2000\u20132023 growth rate. The high increase was due to a continued increase in fossil fuel
emissions and wildfire activity associated with El Ni\u00f1o conditions. The average CO2 concentration reached 425 ppm, a 34% increase from 1960.<\/h6>
Global average air temperature was the highest on record by a considerable margin. It was 0.11 \u00b0C higher than the previous year, 1.29 \u00b0C above the 20th-century average and 1.6 \u00b0C above the pre- industrial average. The last ten years (2014\u20132024) all rank as the ten warmest on record.<\/h6>

The maximum ozone hole extent was 14% smaller than the previous year. It was 10% smaller than the 2000\u20132023 average and 25% smaller than the maximum extent observed in 2000. The ozone hole has not shrunk over the last two decades but may
have stabilised.<\/h6>
Sea ice extent was 0.5% less than the previous year in the Arctic and 5.3% more around Antarctica. Ice extent on both hemispheres combined was 2.3% more than the previous year but still the second-lowest since the start of records in 1978 and 7% lower than the 2000\u20132023 average.<\/h6>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
