New peer-reviewed paper confirms 0.4C/decade acceleration with reduced air pollution as a cause. Contrary to popular belief, models aren't keeping up with observed warming. "Further analysis shows that the ensemble mean of the 26 CMIP6 models reproduces the observed warming rate during 1971–2010 reasonably well (0.21 versus 0.18 °C per decade for models and observations, respectively), but fails to capture the recent doubling of the warming rate during 2011–2025, with a simulated rate of 0.29°C per decade compared with 0.40°C per decade in observations." "The inability of most selected models to reproduce the observed doubling of the warming rate may be partially attributable to inaccuracies in aerosol emission inventories over East China used in CMIP6 and to the omission in CMIP6 of radiative effects and feedbacks associated with the International Maritime Organization’s 2020 regulation limiting the maximum sulfur content of shipping fuels. In East Asia–the North Pacific region, the accelerated warming has been linked to reductions in anthropogenic aerosol emissions from East Asia and from international shipping, as well as to cloud feedbacks in response to a warming North Pacific, and to a poleward shift of the North Pacific stormtrack." "aerosol emissions are expected to continue declining in East Asia, and are likely to decrease in South Asia in the coming years, driven in part by India’s National Clean Air Programme, which was launched in 2019 to substantially reduce air pollution over the next decade. Since aerosols exert a cooling effect on climate, their reduction in India could contribute to regional warming over South Asia and the northern Indian Ocean. Together, these factors may help sustain or even amplify the elevated global warming rate observed during 2011–2025." "Anthropogenic aerosols exert a substantial cooling influence on GMST. Since around 2010, aerosol emissions have declined markedly over East Asia as a result of stringent air-pollution controls and over global oceans following the implementation of low-sulfur shipping regulations. These reductions have been linked to enhanced warming in the North Pacific and North Atlantic during the past decade"

It's hard to believe that some experts aren't aware that El Niños have a step-change (ratchet) effect on global climate. El Niño warming is categorically not temporary. It is irreversible, permanent, forever. El Niño is the engine that heats up the planet in apocalyptic surges. This might be the single most important thing to understand about our situation. For clarity, I added the steps to the graph...

Por primera vez en la historia la temperatura de la zona de El Niño supera los 30.0º C. Y va a seguir subiendo. No he visto una gráfica que tenga peor pinta en mi vida.

We're going to experience two 0.3C El Ninos just 3 years apart. That's an increase from 1.2C global to 1.8C in 5 years, setting up the prospect of reaching 2C whenever the next El Nino arrives. With *this* El Nino, a staggering increase in the average on land from 1.8C to 2.7C in 5 years.
