Last year marked the sixth-warmest year on record, but it was colder than both 2019 and 2020, according to two independent federal reports.
The average surface temperature worldwide, measured via land stations and ocean buoys, was 1.51 degrees Fahrenheit higher than the 20th century average, the sixth-highest level from 1880-2021, according to a report published Thursday by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). A separate report from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) also released on Thursday corroborated the NOAA’s findings, but it said the average temperature in 2021 was tied for sixth-warmest on record.
