This week the UN's climate science body is releasing a major report on the climate changes happening worldwide due to human activity.
In its last report in 2021, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) warned that human activity is changing the climate in unprecedented and sometimes irreversible ways. Scientists said that drastic emissions reductions were needed this decade to keep global warming below 1.5C and protect the world's most vulnerable ecosystems and communities.
This latest report is likely to "emphasise that time is running out for the easier solutions and the more gradual transitions to a carbon free economy", says Bonnie Waring, senior lecturer at the Grantham Institute for climate change and the environment at Imperial College London.
In the last few years, the world has experienced devastating extreme weather caused by climate change, record temperatures and rapid ice melt. Scientists are now tracking the state of the climate more than ever. Here are five key indicators to assess its health in 2023.
