Global Temperature Graph (1851-2020)View the high-resolution of the infographic by clicking here.Since 1880, the Earth’s average surface temperature has risen by 0.07°C (0.13°F) every decade. That number alone may seem negligible, but over time, it adds up....
Examines the science and arguments of global warming skepticism. Common objections like 'global warming is caused by the sun', 'temperature has changed naturally in the past' or 'other planets are warming too' are examined to see what the science really

three are interpolated (no data). Of the five with data, the number of stations is indicated in the lower left corner of each grid-based temperature graph. The only grid with more than two stations
Global warming increases average temperatures and temperature extremes A graph showing global temperatures for the ten hottest years on record. (Image credit: NOAA) One of the most immediate and obvious consequences of global warming is the increase in temperatures around the world. The average global...

the shack stays at roughly the same temperature. But if you make the fire too big, the shack will get hotter... and hotter... and hotter. Before long, you'll start feeling uncomfortable. You might wish you'd never made the fire so big in the first place. But once it's burning, ...
They ignore the fact that the temperature on other planets in our solar system generally correlates with the distance from the Sun. The Sun's radiation is by far the greatest source of planetary warming. Any warming on Earth is caused by increased solar irradiance, not CO2 emissions. Look up...
