I find the obsession with Global Mean XYZ meaningless. Societally irrelevant.

GMT was necessary when change wasn't as obvious, ie in the 1980s or 1990s.
Today, regional impact stats and collapse thresholds are societally relevant. Both, to inform policy and to inform the public.
1.5°C stays relevant as enshrined binding international law. And maybe for climate litigation; all countries' governments in Paris accepted damages from up to 1.5°C.

I imagine a parallel world where climate scientists KNOW that #ClimateChange is an accepted fact, and Copernicus doesn't title a "Warmest year on record", trapped in the forever-loop of trying to convince climate trolls.

But instead, Copernicus has the intellectual free space for societally relevant scoops: "Year where C-C shatters the most livelihoods in South America" or
"Year of largest harvest loss in both, East Europe and South Asia".
