The world's oceans broke a record heat in July due to climate change caused by human activities.
The surface water reached 0.07 °C more than in July 2023, which had already recorded an unprecedented level, according to data from the European Copernicus programme published this Monday.
The ocean absorbed a stunning amount of heat in 2025
Earth’s oceans reached their highest heat levels on record in 2025, absorbing vast amounts of excess energy from the atmosphere. This steady buildup has accelerated since the 1990s and is now driving stronger storms, heavier rainfall, and rising sea levels. While surface temperatures fluctuate year to year, the ocean’s long-term warming trend shows no sign of slowing.
NASA Satellites Revealed a Disturbing Change in the Ocean
NASA Satellites Revealed a Disturbing Change in the OceanNASA satellite data analyzed from 2003 to 2022 shows that 21% of the global ocean has darkened, meaning sunlight now penetrates to shallower depths across vast coastal and open-ocean regions. This documentary explores the shrinking photic zone—the sunlit habitat that supports around 90% of marine life—and examines how pollution, sediment, changing ocean circulation, and climate-driven shif…
