NASA says Earth just had the hottest day ever recorded

Quick Summary:

By 1938, English engineer Guy Callendar had linked rising atmospheric carbon dioxide to global warming.

This scorching day (amid a scorching two weeks) demonstrates a "long-term warming trend driven by human activities, primarily the emission of greenhouse gases," NASA said in a statement.
