At noon Eastern time on Jan. 10, NASA and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration will release their assessment of temperature and climate trends for 2024.

Ahead of this assessment, though, climate scientists are already warning that the planet continues to reach record warming levels, driving extreme weather, exacerbating disasters and pushing ecosystems toward their tipping points. University of Michigan School for Environment and Sustainability (SEAS) experts are available to comment on these trends and their impacts on society, the environment and more. 

SEAS experts include: 

Dean Jonathan Overpeck

Greg Keoleian, professor of sustainable systems

Ayumi Fujisaki-Manome, associate research scientist, Cooperative Institute for Great Lakes Research at SEAS

Andrew Hoffman, professor of sustainable enterprise, a position at SEAS and the Ross School of Business

Dimitrios Gounaridis, geospatial data scientist
