It was fantastic to have such a great turnout for our Scotland United for Climate Action reception at Scottish Parliament last night. Thank you to everyone who came along!
2024 was Scotland's 6th warmest year in records which go back to 1884. May was the warmest May ever and December the 7th warmest December. Spring 2024 was the warmest Scottish spring ever. We also had the 4th wettest April.
9 of the 10 warmest years have been since 2000, the other one is 1997.
