Do you realize that your chart doesn't actually show "the last ten years"? It stops in 2007. What's happened since 2007 is not irrelevant to the question at hand. Here's an example of a temperature chart that does show "the last 10 years": http://www.woodfortrees.org/plot/wti/from:2001/to:2011/normalise http://www.woodfortrees.org/plot/wti/from:2001/to:2011/norma... (the "WoodForTrees Index" is a composite created from the mean of HADCRUT3VGL, GISTEMP, RSS and UAH, offset by their baseline differences.)
