World sizzles to record for the year
July 16, 2010 /
The world is hotter than ever.
March, April, May and June set records, making 2010 the warmest year worldwide since record-keeping began in 1880, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration says.
"It’s part of an overall trend," says Jay Lawrimore, climate analysis chief at NOAA’s National Climatic Data Center. "Global temperatures … have been rising for the last 100-plus years. Much of the increase is due to increases in greenhouse gases."
