Record January warmth puzzles scientists
Last month was the world's warmest January on record.
January 2025 had been expected to be slightly cooler than January 2024 because of a shift away from a natural weather pattern in the Pacific known as El Ni帽o. But instead, last month broke the January 2024 record by nearly 0.1C, according to the European Copernicus climate service. We hear messages from around the world about people's concerns over climate change. We also bring together climate journalists to discuss whether climate is still on the top of political agenda.
