Let's not forget how truly committed Mr. Trudeau is to single use plastics......

Your reply is all focused on a chart which uses "adjusted" temperatures - not the raw data that was originally captured. I wish I could find it - but I remember a chart from IPCC AR1 that showed the 20s and 30s being virtually the same as the 80s and 90s.........but with subsequent smoothing and adjusting, it magically disappeared. Putting aside the "hide the decline" debacle, common sense dictates that there are next to NO accurate records for Global temperatures prior to 1940, let alone going all the way back to 1880. Countries have come and gone, wars fought and lost. Temperatures from Africa, the Middle Esat, the Arctic/Antarctica, Russia, China? They were busy with other things other than measuring temperatures. Even ENVIRONMENT CANADA deleted all temperatures prior to 1950 from their temperature records because they were "unreliable". The historical data shown in your chart is therefore - mostly made up - created with an understandable bias towards the IPCC mission - to find the human figerprint of man-made global warming. .....and to support that claim, I go back to my point - why are all the "hottest temperatures" in US states and every Province set almost exclusively in the first half of the 20th centure, clustered around the 20s and 30s......could it be that those decades were at least much warmer than the chart indicates?

The complexity of Climate Change leaves the common man scratching hid head – yet many of us have the capacity to understand what has been observed, and put it into context……as long as we are presented with real facts. It’s hard to argue with facts – and most “facts” and “truths” need to be based on observation – not theory. Here’s a couple of examples that expose the untruthfulness/omissions that we have to wade through. The cry that we are 1.5 degrees about the 20th century average is supposed to emit concern, if not fear. Even granting that there has been SOME warming since the Little Ice Age ended, the term “Average” is just that…..some decades are colder, some warmer….and it’s perfectly plausible that there have been past decades – like the 20s, 30s and 40s that may have been just as warm – and some decades that would be the cooler. That context is missing from the doomsday narrative. If you can absorb that, think about this. The vast majority of “hottest temperature records” for each US State were all set prior to 2000 – and mostly in the 20s, 30s and 40s. Canada’s provinces follow the same pattern. Given all that, how are we to believe that almost every year since 2000 has been “the hottest year on record”.
