August 2025 Ranked Third Hottest Globally, No. Pacific Atlantic Oceans "Hottest Temperature Ever"

"Scientists attribute this to the ocean storing approximately 90% of excess heat trapped by greenhouse gases. Now, record ocean temperatures have significant consequences. They help fuel extreme weather from intensified heat waves to floods to more energetic storms" VIDEO: August 2025 Ranked Third Hottest Globally | North Atlantic, Pacific Hit Hottest Temperature Ever WION The World is One News video, transcript below:

   

AI TRANSCRIPT: globally, marked by records shattering 0:07 ocean heat waves in the northern 0:09 hemisphere. According to the European 0:11 Union's Copernicus Climate Change 0:13 Service, while August 2025 did not beat 0:15 all the all-time record, it remains one 0:18 of the hottest months in history. 0:19 Continuing a worrying trend of rising 0:22 temperatures. Particularly alarming are 0:24 the North Pacific and North Atlantic 0:26 near France and the UK, which recorded 0:28 their highest ever sea surface 0:30 temperatures this August. Scientists 0:32 attribute this to the ocean storing 0:34 approximately 90% of excess heat trapped 0:37 by greenhouse gases, acting as Earth's 0:39 temperature memory. Now, these record 0:42 ocean temperatures have significant 0:44 consequences. They help fuel extreme 0:46 weather from intensified heat waves to 0:48 floods to more energetic storms and 0:50 marine heat waves with lasting impacts 0:52 on ecosystems and communities. Well, in 0:55 summary, August R25 ranks as the third 0:58 hottest globally, but it is the 1:00 unprecedented ocean warmth that stands 1:03 out as a major concern. As our planet 1:05 absorbs more heat, the risks of extreme 1:08 weather events and ecological disruption 1:11 continue to rise. 1:14 [Music]
