Analysis
Germany recorded 0.0012 °C for global warming contributions by gas and source in 2024. That is the highest value across all 174 years on record.
Compared with earlier readings it is up 0.4% on the previous year and up 4.8% over ten years.
Over the whole period, global warming contributions by gas and source in Germany peaked at 0.0012 °C in 2024 and was at its lowest, 0 °C, in 1851.
That places Germany 5th out of 201 countries with data for 2024, putting it in the top 10%.
The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.
