Analysis
Samoa recorded 0 °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 2.6% on the previous year and up 28.4% over ten years.
Over the whole period, global warming contributions by gas and source in Samoa peaked at 0 °C in 2024 and was at its lowest, 0 °C, in 1851.
That places Samoa 178th out of 201 countries with data for 2024, putting it in the bottom quarter.
The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.
