2016 marks three consecutive years of record warmth for the globe
The 2016 globally averaged surface temperature ended as the highest since record keeping began in 1880, according to NOAA’s National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI).
2016 marked the third consecutive year a new global annual temperature record has been set. The average global temperature across land and ocean surface areas for 2016 was 14.84°C (58.69 degrees F) or 0.94°C (1.69°F) above the 20th century average of 13.9°C (57.0°F), surpassing the previous record warmth of 2015 by 0.04°C (0.07°F).
Since the start of the 21st century, the annual global temperature record has been broken five times (2005, 2010, 2014, 2015, and 2016).
Overall, the global annual temperature has increased at an average rate of 0.07°C (0.13°F) per decade since 1880 and at an average rate of 0.17°C (0.31°F) per decade since 1970.

Earth on the edge: Record breaking 2016 was close to 1.5°C warming
https://climate.copernicus.eu/
– 2016 confirmed as the warmest year on record, warmer than 2015 by close to 2°C
– Global temperatures reached a peak in February 2016 around 1.5°C higher than at the start of the Industrial Revolution
– Extreme conditions impacting several regions across the Earth
The first global analysis of the whole of 2016 has confirmed last year as the warmest on record and saw the planet near a 1.5°C warming, according to the Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S).
The latest figures from C3S, part of the EU’s Copernicus earth observation program, show that 2016’s global temperature exceeded 14.8°C, and was around 1.3°C higher than typical for the middle years of the 18th century. 2016 was close to 0.2°C warmer than 2015, which was previously the warmest year on record.
