In honour of the the crazy predictions of 5 degree increases in global temperature averages coming out of the Doha climate change conference, I present the following graph showing the current state of play regarding climate change and changes in global average temperature since 1910 (the mean temperature during the period 1880-1909 being classified as the "pre-industrial average"). Figures are from NASA GISS.
