Offi­cial White House Response to Secure resources and fund­ing, and begin con­struc­tion of a Death Star by 2016. This Isn’t the

2012 Was the Hottest Year to Date

Here are some quotes that use math­em­at­ics to make their point. How hot was it? The tem­per­at­ure dif­fer­ences between years are usu­ally meas­ured in frac­tions of a degree, but last year’s
