I don't know what places the G.I. Joe films so close together timeline-wize, but Selfishmisery's overview seems to have missed the dialogue suggesting the sequel was set at least after September 1st while the first film occurs between August 9th and August 19th.
The Operation HISS comic suggests that the sequel is probably at least a little past mid-September though. Maybe this gets retconned by the sequel though, we'll see.

Yeah... there's no reason Retaliation has to occur only a week and a half after The Rise of Cobra from what I can tell. I didn't spot a 2015 date at all either.
The only dates (that I can verify) are:
G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra = August, in the near future
G.I. Joe: Retaliation = pre-2016, one month before Global Warming summit
So, I think if there's no 2015 date, August-October 2013 is suitable (Retaliation released in 2013). There was a UN Climate Change Conference in November 2013, so one month prior is October, and then you can match the time passage shown in the Operation HISS comic to bring it into October.
Funny enough, if you wanted to connect to Transformers, that makes things easier. With dialogue at the end which states "with the world back in order, rebuilding has begun around the world", there's an implication that London will be rebuilt, and there'd be a 10 year gap between this film and The Last Knight.
Which would lead us to this.
