Princeton, N.J.—January 30, 2024—Today Climate Central's global Climate Shift Index was named one of the best uses of technology in the 2024 Anthem Awards, established to recognize the year's best purpose- and mission-driven work worldwide.

Awarded silver in the Sustainability, Environment & Climate category for its representation of the influence of climate change on local temperatures, the Climate Shift Index provides a clear indication of how human-caused global warming impacts the likelihood of any day's high, low, and average temperatures virtually anywhere on Earth.

The global Climate Shift Index map is publicly accessible (https://csi.climatecentral.org/csi-contour-map/), with detailed background information on the weather attribution science and the methodology beneath the daily, local findings.

More about this award, including the Anthem Awards' signature one-sentence acceptance speech by Climate Central's vice president for science, Dr. Andrew Pershing, is available at: https://www.anthemawards.com/winners/list/entry/#!sustainability-environment-climate/best-use-of-technology/global-climate-shift-index/1985/-1/462413
