Agence France-Presse: This winter may have brought a deep freeze to much of the northeastern United States -- including record-breaking snowfall in Boston -- but it was the planet's warmest winter on record, climate scientists announced yesterday (March 18). The average global temperature from December to February was 1.42 degrees Fahrenheit (0.79 degrees Celsius) higher than the 20th-century average of 53.8 degrees F (12.1 degrees C), according to a newly released report from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's...
The First Two Months of 2015 Are Already the Warmest on Record

Quartz: We may only be two months into 2015, but already the year is burning up the charts, setting up the possibility that it could topple 2014's newly minted record for hottest year. Together, January and February were the warmest such period on record, according to global data released March 18 by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. With an El Nio (albeit a weak one) in place, there's potential for that warmth to stick around and elevate temperatures for more of the year. Of course,...

Reuters: Last year tied with 2010 as the hottest on record, in a new sign of long-term global warming stoked by human activities, according to British data on Monday that back up U.S. findings of record-breaking heat in 2014. The worldwide data, compiled by the Met Office and the University of East Anglia from records stretching back to 1850, showed average surface temperatures last year were 0.56 degree Celsius (1.0 Fahrenheit) above the long-term average of 1961-90. "This ranks 2014 as the joint warmest...

Environment News Service: The year 2014 ranks as Earth's warmest since record keeping began in 1880, according to two separate analyses by scientists with two U.S. agencies -- the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, NASA, and National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, NOAA. The 10 warmest years on record, with the exception of 1998, have now occurred since 2000. This trend continues a long-term warming of the planet, according to an analysis of surface temperature measurements by scientists at NASA's Goddard...

Even with no El Nino, 2014 warmest year on record
2015-01-18 19:31:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Mongabay: It was no surprise, but on Friday both NASA and NOAA announced that last year-2014-was the warmest on record. The year bested out both previous record holders, 2005 and 2010. According to NOAA, 2014 was 0.69 degrees Celsius (1.24 degrees Fahrenheit) above the 20th century average. The Earth is warming rapidly due to greenhouse gas emissions, mostly from burning fossil fuels such as coal, oil, and gas, but also from deforestation and industrialized agriculture. In just over a hundred years, the planet...
