Notice the term is phrased as temperature "anomaly", for one. Also it depends on where you take the measurements from. If you take measurements from cities you will see higher temps. If you take measurements from rural areas you will actually see a cooling trend. This is why they backed off from "global warming" and changed it to "global climate change.
Yeah and they all use the same temperature monitoring stations. Ya know the ones positioned on building roofs and concrete parking lots.
A half a degree?
They want to destroy business for a half a degree?
Where is the information on Sun activity at the same time? Oh, they aren't considering that?
I have serious doubts that any data taken from different places all over the world would look like an exact copy of one another.
When was the Environmental Protection Agency started? Is that when the temperature started climbing?
The earth is 4.5 million years old and I should panic because of a chart of the last 130 years.
All four of these “agencies” are probably dependent upon government dollars to buy their temperature gauges. I’m sorry, any time government dollars are involved, I’m going to be skeptical. The government doesn’t hand out money to people who go against that government’s agenda.
Fer shure, fer shure!
I’ll go up, have a look-see, and come back to tellem that there is no FRicking Global Warming!
It is a figment of thier political funding imagination!
What a bunch of maroons!
I think this chart is faked. They’re all using the same data, just different versions of it (different interpretations of proxy data).
Remember Michael Mann’s “nature trick” where he grafted proxy data onto temperature measurements?
This destroys all confidence that NASA is scientifically competent. They put their reputation on the line with this chart.
And the way it’s worded has the nasty feline touch of the progressive Democrat.
So its all political science from now on from NASA.
The problem with the poster is it is a strawman.
No one is arguing that the temperature raised up a degree or two, but WHY? That is the dispute. Not the WHAT happened but the WHY it happened.
They are deliberately twisting the truth. The dispute that I as a scientist make is the idea that human beings have caused this. NO SUCH PROOF.
The temperature has gone up, but it has not been proved to be caused by carbon dioxide created by the human industrialism on the planet.
Answer me this: how does that chart help with NASA’s core mission to make muslims feel better about themselves?
I didn’t know NASA was around in 1880 to oversee precision temperature measurement and data compilation.
