The graph was produced by Prof. Dick Lindzen and comes with this note:
Look at the attached. There has been no warming since 1997 and no
statistically significant warming since 1995. Why bother with the
arguments about an El Nino anomaly in 1998? (Incidentally, the red
fuzz represents the error ‘bars’.)
Best wishes,
Dick
15 years with no statistically significant warming... how long so we have to worry about wamring that isn't happening?
Commenter "GK" also points out:
Excellent point by the Prof. – the 1998 “spike” is irrelevant because it was immediately followed by an equivalent cooling. It is of no significance what so ever.
If you look at the RSS/UAH graphs from the start to today. The actual statisticaly measured warming over the whole period is something like 0.1-0.2 of a degree from 1979 to today.
0.1 of a degree warming over 20 years when CO2’s influence should be the STRONGEST !! Remember that CO2’s heat effect is logarithmic. The more you add, the less it`s impact. Most of the the evil warmening doom should have already been happening.
