If you scroll down a bit, it has an alarming animated graphic which seems to show a short period of minor cooling/stability followed by a more recent longer period of extreme heating.
The deception of this animation is two-fold:
- Look at how fast the years are ticking when it shows the cooling period vs the heating period. The animation fast forwards through 20 years of cooling and then plays 6 years of heating in slow motion; this makes the animation seem more alarming.
- They cut out the longest, most significant period of cooling between 1900 and 1910. Proof: https://climate.nasa.gov/interactives/climate-time-machine https://climate.nasa.gov/interactives/climate-time-machine
Another interesting distortion from Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:2000_Year_Temperature_Comparison.png https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:2000_Year_Temperature_Com...
That looks scary except when you consider that this is not the temperature but the change of temperature - When you look at it this way, you can see that the earth has been getting colder every year for 1800 years, it's only in the past 50 to 100 years that the trend finally reversed... After 1800 years, it was going to reverse eventually so this is not alarming at all. I would have been more alarmed if the cooling trend had continued. In the context of this global cooling, some of the rapid temperature drops which led to the little ice age 400 years ago are much more alarming than short-term rises in temperature that we are currently experiencing.
Whether or not climate is changing, it's clear that the information is being distorted to make the data seem more alarming and this is deceptive. There are many such examples of data manipulation all over the internet.
