Reuters: Last year was among the top 10 warmest in the modern global record, two U.S. climate-watching agencies reported on Tuesday, less than a week after 2012 was declared the hottest ever in the contiguous United States. The U.S. space agency NASA and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration jointly issued two reports on 2012 world temperatures. NASA ranked last year the ninth-warmest since record-keeping began in 1880, while NOAA found last year was the tenth-warmest. The difference in...

Mongabay: 2012 was the ninth warmest year since annual record-keeping began in 1880 say NASA scientists who cited rising greenhouse gas emissions as the chief culprit. "2012 was the ninth warmest of any year since 1880, continuing a long-term trend of rising global temperatures. With the exception of 1998, the nine warmest years in the 132-year record all have occurred since 2000, with 2010 and 2005 ranking as the hottest years on record," said NASA in a statement posted on its web site. "One more year...

BBC: US scientists say that 2012 was the among the 10 warmest the world has experienced since 1880. Researchers from Nasa said it was the ninth warmest year while experts from another American agency said it was the tenth. Both teams said that temperatures would have been higher if it hadn't been for the the La Nina weather pattern that brought cooling to some regions. The scientists were equally certain that carbon dioxide was the principal driver of the rise over the past 50 years. The National...
America's warmest year

Charleston Gazette: Industrial and political leaders in coal-dominated West Virginia generally shrug off global warming, or even call it imaginary. They won't admit that greenhouse fumes from coal-burning are heating the planet. So they'll probably stay silent about news that America just suffered its hottest year in history. Federal climate scientists announced Tuesday that 2012 set a heat record for the continental United States -- 3.2 degrees above normal, and a stunning 1 degree higher than the previous record....

5 Charts Help Illustrate 2012 As Warmest Year on Record

Climate Central: According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), 2012 was far and away the warmest year on record in the lower 48 states, beating 1998 by a full degree Fahrenheit. These charts put that warmth into historical perspective for the country as a whole, and for a few select cities. The 1°F margin between 2012 and 1998 may not seem like much at first, but usually such temperature records are set by just a few fractions of a degree. As seen in this NOAA chart, 2012 towers above...
