Look at that...
2nd hottest, not even the first even with all this supposed "global warming."
Saw something else I thought was interesting also.

I've been saying for years it's all normal, and the Earth will do whatever the Sun dictates..
Our Sun rules the weather, and our climate. The Sun has varried how much energy it radiates off on a pretty regular basis. More radiation and it's hotter on earth. Less, and it grows colder.
Gas concentration on the planet does hold in the heat, but the SUN still rules the weather/tempature and everything else on the surface of this planet we all call home.
Water vapor is the #1 heat trapping gas. Then C02 is down the list along with argon, nitrous oxide and other trace gases.
Things like Oxygen and Nitrogen don't trap heat very well at all. (Basicly they don't trap heat, or reflect it either.)
Oh, and here's something to keep in mind.
Nitrogen and Oxygen make up most of our atmosphere. C02 is about 3" of a football field.
If you have a 300 foot long line, only the last 3 inches is C02. And man is reponsible for very little of that gas. (Less than 3%, some say less than .01%.)
And the amount they figure has increased because of burning "fossil fuels"..... And the sources that are 97 to 99.9% of that increase in the total C02 in our atmosphere? Yep, it's about 3/8's of an inch... Yes, that is about as thick as a yellow #2 pencil...
The line has gone from 3 inches to 3 inches and 3/8's of an inch... Yikes, break out the sunscreen, we are all gonna die!
So, "Man" and nature has added the thickness of a pencil to the 3 inches of Co2 way down at the end of the football field of our atmosphere...
And they claim it's changing the weather? Cough*bullshit*cough!
Best guess, we don't know what the weather is going to be like in two weeks, let alone two years, or 20 years.
All the predictions are, and have been wrong, and anyone who's serious in this climate estimating business will admit that they really don't know jack shit, even now with all our knowlege and technology, we are just guessing beyond about 3 days, and outside of 10, nobody wants to put their name on that weather forcast... (Becasue it will most likely be wrong.)

CO2 is a trace element in the atmosphere. 80% nitrogen and 20% oxygen, give or take a point, depending on whose book you are reading. The rest makes up 1%.
