00:00July 2025 marked a break in the series of heat records that characterized the summers of 2023
00:06and 2024, according to the European Union's Copernicus Climate Service. Let's see more details.
00:16According to the latest Copernicus Bulletin, despite mildly cooler temperatures, July 2025
00:22was still the third warmest July globally, with an average surface air temperature of 16.68 degrees C
00:300, 45 degrees C above the 1991 to 2020 average. This data is studied with the European Union's
00:40Earth Observation System, called NICOLAS, and it is based on satellite and on the ground data collection.
00:47Based on our data, the global average temperature for July 2025 was the third warmest on record,
01:01so behind July 2023, which was the hottest July on record in July 2024. If we look at the global
01:13average SSD, it was also the third warmest on record behind, again, July 2023 and 2024. So third warmest
01:24for both the global average surface temperature over the entire globe and the global average SSD,
01:30just looking at the ocean surface.
01:35According to NICOLAS, global warming is being massively absorbed by oceans and sea,
01:41and we are really coming out of a streak of global temperature record that lasted almost two years. So from mid-2023 to earlier this year, so up until January 2025. So it was a very exceptional
02:10streak of global temperature record. And we are coming out of this streak with the last few months
02:20where we saw the global average temperature slightly decreasing.
02:28The increased trend of the Mediterranean Sea temperature is about three times faster. If we calculate how many degrees Celsius per year, the water is warming in the Mediterranean, three times higher than the global average trend. This means that if we take an average across all global oceans, that's one third of the average increase for the Mediterranean Sea.
02:54The extreme weather event will continue happening as long as the long term, it's really like the long term warming trend continues. And as long as we don't stop emitting greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, we'll see this warming trend continue.
03:14But that's something to keep in mind is it's not because we're seeing the end of the global temperature record that we will see the end of this extreme weather event, sadly. So we need to prepare for them and just continue efforts just to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
03:35The Mediterranean Sea is warming on its surface, but not only there because the heat absorbed is then spread to the deeper layers of the Mediterranean Sea. It is warming up at a rate that is higher than the global average.
03:52We'll see you in the middle of the next 5 to 5 to 6 to 6 minutes.
04:05Just wait for the heat of the Mediterranean.
04:08We've got a lot of heat of the Mediterranean.
04:10Just wait for the heat of the Mediterranean.
04:12We'll see you next time.
04:14Next time we have a large sea Patrick's elevation.
04:18We'll see you next time.
