The climate stripes show the change in average annual global temperatures since 1850. Red stripes indicate hotter years and blue stripes indicate cooler years, against the average of the period 1961-2010.
After being updated with data from 2023, the global climate stripes needed a new shade of red to reflect the extreme heat recorded last year.
Stripes for cities, countries and continents have all been updated using 2023 data and can be viewed at showyourstripes.info. Download images and use #ShowYourStripes on social media on Friday 21, June to share stripes for your city or country.
Look out for stripes appearing on landmarks, buildings and monuments in the UK, USA, Australia and elsewhere. Share your images on social media using #ShowYourStripes.
