That is a fascinating graphics, but probably not in the way you intended it. I would dearly love to learn the source. Clearly, it was not done by a physicist, a statistician or a climate-weather expert.

No true scientist would label such a temperature variation ordinate as an "anomally", since variation is the norm in both climate and weather, and has been forever. The only documented state within the topic of world temperature is constant change.

I tend to re-host graphics so they cannot disappear after I link them.
