No Global Warming in the past 10 years?
I recently read a pseudo-science climate-change sceptical rant which gleefully linked to a grubby article in the Australian. It deals with the fact that global temperatures had not risen in the 10 years since 1998. The interpretation: global warming stopped sometime in the last decade. The inference: anthropogenic global warming is a myth.
As usual, of course, climate-change deniers cherry-pick the data, presenting out-lying points (1998 being the warmest year on record) as references and ignoring explanatory data. And of course ignoring the fact that the last 10 years has been the warmest decade on record!
Peter Sinclair has produced another excellent video, this time challenging the global-warming-has-stopped canard. What’s disturbing is that with the return of an El Niño cycle, we can look forward to some hefty increases in global tempratures in the coming few years.
