2017 Takes Second Place for Hottest Year

2017 was the second hottest year since 1880, when global measurements first became possible.

This continues a decades-long trend of global warming.

As the global climate continues to warm, polar ice melts,
sea levels rise, and fire seasons burn hotter and longer.

NASA continues to monitor Earth's temperature and its effects on weather and climate,

to better understand our home planet as an interconnected system.
