Is a mini ICE AGE on the way?

The graph started when more reliable instrumental temps were being taken around the world in 1880 and that is after the “Little Ice Age” (which some say ran from 1300 to 1850). However, if you want a longer graph that goes back further, here it is:

Now what is important to remember, aside from globally averaged temps going up and down, up and down, until recently when they are mainly going up, is that today’s temp is not what scientists and those concerned about life on earth are concerned about. It is how high the temps might go by 2100, and the projection if we continue on our emissions path is they will go way up (some say as high as 6C warmer), which is way above many of the great warming periods of the past that caused extinction level events.

But I guess we won’t be alive then so who cares? Right? (I guess I’m the only one – so pity me)
I want to see the measuring tools through the history of the chart that is accurate to tenths of a degree Celsius.

These are all proxies of various sorts up to the modern time, with the black line at the right end being the instrumental measurements from 1880. You probably need to talk to some climate scientists about how they got their measurements. One way to do that is find out the leading researchers on each of those proxies and email them. You can start with the references at the bottom of this page & contact the lead authors – en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proxy_(climate

I now and then email climate scientists with specific questions and they are usually very gracious in answering, and if they don’t know, they usually refer me to people who do know.

So you have taken the word of a graph with very suspicious information without checking the source yourself.

Well at least you are not dishonest.
just gullible.
