2016 was hottest year on record, international report confirms
By Timothy Cama - 08/10/17 01:25 PM EDT
A report compiled by scientists around the world confirmed Thursday that 2016 was the hottest year since tracking began.
The State of the Climate in 2016 report, led by the United States’ National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) with the help of scientists from 60 nations, found that “the major indicators of climate change continued to reflect trends consistent with a warming planet.”
The comprehensive report came days after the New York Times publicized a draft of a separate major climate change report that is awaiting Trump administration approval.
The Times reported that scientists working on that quadrennial report feared that the administration would try to bury some or all of its conclusions, since Trump and much of his Cabinet are skeptical about global warming. The report is congressionally mandated every four years. A final version hasn’t been released, so it remains to be seen if anything will be changed or removed.
According to NOAA, 2016’s heat — the highest in 137 years — came from a combination of a warming trend caused by human-induced greenhouse gas emissions and the El Niño weather pattern.
The temperature record had been reported in the beginning of the year by the United States and numerous other counterpart agencies around the world.
But the annual report released Thursday by NOAA and other agencies including the American Meteorological Society documented a series of other alarming statistics and records.

A report compiled by scientists around the world confirmed Thursday that 2016 was the hottest year since altering the temperature records began to show a heating trend.
It is very easy to show a heating trend when you alter the data.
Billions of dollars are being spent to show that mankind is rotten. You have to get on the bandwagon if you want continued funding.
You people can stop the Global Warming crap now, Algore’s movie is a flop
The press doesn't care or doesn't know, and wont tell you.
Obama’s Fault!

The hottest only ifn yerere hillary
Several years ago it was pointed out that the sites they gather information from have been relatively urbanized and thus “global warming” is a relatively urban phenomenon. Sorry to confuse the “chicken little” crowd from their hysteria but facts are indeed facts and their poor little pea brains cannot comprehend truth.
One data point tells you nothing.
Ask any old guy who was around in 1936.
Some stations in the American Midwest reported minimum temperatures at or above 90 °F (32 °C) such as 91 °F (33 °C) at Lincoln, Nebraska on July 25, 1936; the next and most recent time this is known to have happened is a handful of 90 °F (32 °C) minimums during a similar heat wave in late June 1988 but far less intense than that of 1936. The highest nightly low temperature outside of the desert south-west was 94 °F (34 °C) at Atchison, Kansas during the heat wave of July 1934.
The LOW in Lincoln was 91! The same month there was a high in NORTH DAKOTA of 121!
2016 was the highest in history, BS!
