Graph Of The Day: Earth Temps Visualized


(click to enlarge)


From the scientists at Berkeley Earth, a non-profit organization of earth scientists, a representation of the Earth's temperature starting from 1850 to the present year. The steady morphing from blue/cool to orange/hot is clear to see, as the industrial age and reliance on fossil fuels worldwide have steadily warmed the Earth to alarming proportions.

Since Trump doesn't read, this chart would be a good way to show him what global warming/climate change looks like.

Except he'd say it was fake, it was put together by crank science, or he'd say, “Really? Who cares?”

Hard facts about a genuine threat mean nothing to that big ham head.
