Introduction to January 2025 Climate Discussions

Welcome to January 2025, a pivotal month in climate discussions as we open our platform for an engaging dialogue on pressing climate topics. As we delve into this year, it’s essential to approach our discussions with substance and respect, focusing on the intricacies of climate science.

Upcoming Updates on Observational Datasets

Mark your calendars! An update to the various observational datasets is anticipated after January 10th. This update is crucial as it will provide us with a clearer picture of the current climate situation based on the latest data. Additionally, we hope to roll out model-observation comparisons the following week, which will shed light on how different climate models align with observational data. These comparisons are key to understanding the accuracy and reliability of climate projections.

Reflecting on Two Decades of Progress

As we celebrate our 20th year, we reflect on the tremendous progress made in climate science over the past two decades. From unprecedented advances in technology that enhance our ability to monitor changes in the Earth's climate to greater public awareness of climate issues, we are at a critical junction.
