What Warming?

Had a great time at yesterday's book signing. Thanks to the Great Plains Nature Center for putting on a great evening.

At the signing, I was approached by several people who wanted to discuss global warming. Two, in almost the same words, asked, "Surely, you don't dispute that earth's temperatures are rapidly rising?" I told them that the data indicated there has been little warming the last 15 years.

So, for anyone interested, here is a graph of world atmospheric temperatures for the that period as compiled by the Hadley Center in England:
Fortunately, the numerous forecasts from the IPCC and others that temperatures would continue rising or that "2010 will be the hottest year in history" have just not come true. The future is anyone's guess.
