The graphic shows the increase in global warming from the beginning of data recording in 1880 to 2023. Temperature data showing rapid warming in the past few decades, the latest data going up through 2023. According to NASA, Earth’s average surface temperature in 2023 was the warmest on record since recordkeeping began in 1880, continuing a long-term trend of rising global temperatures. On top of that, the 10 most recent years have been the hottest. (Source: NASA's Goddard Institute for Space Studies)

In a nutshell: „But we are entering an increasingly dangerous period of our history. Our population and our use of the finite resources of planet Earth are growing exponentially, along with our technical ability to change the environment for good or ill. [...] It will be difficult enough to avoid disaster in the next hundred years, let alone the next thousand or million.” — Stephen Hawking
