So, in spite of the very strong and persistant La Nina that dragged that chart down for eight years, we had the warmest decade on record.
And when you look at the long term record, it is all up;
NOAA Paleoclimatology Global Warming - The Data
Well, wait a minute, now... You have been telling us that CO2 is the culprit and everyone has known about it since the 1800's and if we reduce CO2, then the globe will cool and we will return the Utopian existance described in the novels by Charles Dickens.
Now you tell us that cooling will take effect even when CO2 is rising because the Pacific Ocean cools off? How did the Pacific Cool with all that CO2 "Greenhousing" the heat back into it?
Does CO2 have a liberal vacation policy and is taking a little time off in the South Pacific?
This doggone CO2 must have a government job.
