  Looks wrong to me. If you're after climate/temperature data it's out there. http://data.giss.nasa.gov/gistemp/graphs/ http://data.giss.nasa.gov/gistemp/graphs/ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temperature_record_of_the_past_1000_years http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temperature_record_of_the_past_... Both from a google search: http://www.google.com.au/search?q=graph+global+mean+temperature http://www.google.com.au/search?q=graph+global+mean+temperat... ps. Your source sucks.

  From 1970 to 2008 that graph shows a slow increase in temperatures. If you plot the average every 10 years it's increasing. Was that trying to refute my point? Anyway, graphs don't help they show people what they want to see. I just want data and then we can break out some statistics. Second, is that the global average temperature or some local measurement? Because individual local measurements are also meaningless. Anyway, take global data over 200 years averaged into 10 year blocks and see what best fits the data. Hint: it's probably not linear.
