170 Years of Earth Surface Temperature Data Show No Evidence of Significant Warming | Watts Up With That?

170 Years of Earth Surface Temperature Data Show No Evidence of Significant Warming | Watts Up With That?

• Key Points

1. From 1850 to the present, the noise-corrected, average warming of the surface of the earth is less than 0.07 degrees C per decade.
2. The rate of warming of the surface of the earth does not correlate with the rate of increase of fossil fuel emissions of CO2 into the atmosphere.
3. Recent increases in surface temperatures reflect 40 years of increasing intensities of the El Nino Southern Oscillation climate pattern.

This study investigates the relationships between surface temperatures from 1850 to the present and reported long-range temperature predictions of global warming. 
...The rate of warming of the earth’s surface has dropped 41 percent since 2006..."
