UN and other scientists recently sent out news releases claiming July 2019 was the "hottest month ever recorded on Earth"--nearly about 1.2 degrees C (2.2 degrees F) "above pre-industrial levels." That era happens to coincide with the world's emergence from the 500-year Little Ice Age. And "ever recorded" simply means measured; it does not include multiple earlier eras when Earth was much warmer than now.
