    2. With Copernicus data in from the penultimate month of the year, we can now confirm with virtual certainty that 2024 will be the warmest year on record and the first calendar year above 1.5C. This does not mean that the Paris Agreement has been breached but it does mean ambitious climate action is more urgent than ever.

    1. Losses are likely to increase as climate change intensifies extreme weather events, while asset values increase in high-risk areas due to urban sprawl. Adaptation is therefore key, and protective measures, such as dykes, dams and flood gates, are up to 10 times more cost-effective than rebuilding.
