So far, 27 years of COP meetings have been a complete failure; you can't argue with physics. Anyone saying otherwise has fossil fuels or books to sell. #EmergencyMode
The colors provide an approximate indicator of global mean surface temperature anomaly over the time period. Deepest reds correspond to where we are today (about 1.3°C above pre-industrial). For the actual temp. anomaly plot, here's Berkeley Earth

2020 was nominally the second warmest year on Earth since 1850. It was slightly colder than 2016 but warmer than every other measured year.
