Analysis
French Polynesia recorded 0.0% for global warming: contributions to the change in global mean surface temperature in 2024. That is the highest value across all 174 years on record.
Compared with earlier readings it is up 1.2% on the previous year and up 14.6% over ten years.
Over the whole period, global warming: contributions to the change in global mean surface temperature in French Polynesia peaked at 0.0% in 2024 and was at its lowest, 0.0%, in 1851.
That places French Polynesia 183rd out of 215 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.
