Are you saying that chart is based on raw unadjusted numbers? If so then you are a pathetic liar.
My chart, which is the exact same chart the deniers use to claim there has been no warming for 17 years, is based on anomalies. Nobody uses raw unadjusted numbers, nobody with a working brain that is.
Lol, so now science cant use raw data, they all have to cook it first?

Yes, you dumbass liar, lots of scientists still use raw data.
lol, you just cant make this shit up!

We are talking about temperature measurements. Since you know you made a fool of yourself, you are trying to move the goalposts to ALL science.
Global temperature measurements use ANOMALIES, not raw data. Not all thermometers are perfectly accurate around the globe and as the deniers have pointed out, not all sites are ideal. So what scientists do is take that raw temperature data and average it over a 30 year period and then calculate the deviation of the raw data from that average. That deviation is an ANOMALY and that calculated data is more accurate in showing a warming or cooling trend than the raw data, which is why real scientists use ANOMALIES rather than raw dats only idiot deniers use because accurate data exposes the denier's lies.
