In my opinion your chart is unfair, going back 2020 years is not fair to the Pharaohs and 🇪🇬 Egyptian Civilisation 5000 years ago. The burned CO2 to build the great Pyramids
Mr. Hawkins, why do you paint the Artic sea ice melting, but not the Antártica sea ice growth since 40y? Or why do you paint those 22cm sea level rising since 1900, but not the trends since thousand of years? Thanks in advance

It would be very good to add #methane levels on there too.
At last the world is realising that CO2 reduction is not the only game in town in tackling temperature rise...

Hi Ed, thanks so much for sharing this.
Small q - on the 2,020 years of global temperature data, do you know what the zero on the Y axis represents? As seems it's not a mean average given 90% of data is below the axis
Big thanks in advance!

Thank you. Also can the second graph be changes to use the reference period of 1850-1900?

Interesting enough on their own, but now I'm really curious as to the tiny spikes in temperature in the first half of this graphic
