Wow, really liked the pictures, not the creative story around it... never a word on massive volcano eruptions for instance and the rest. Let me take a copy for posterity



Has a reasonable resemblance to other published chart such as GISTEMP and the HadCRU version:



Don't know if David Autumns will thank you as you've just co-debunked his statement that there was no warming in the 21st century, which started in 2000. It's been a little bit more than 0.32C on a longer baseline at that. Might we call this and Own Goal?

As for when the cooling phase starts... plz let us know when that will be... next Terrible winter? Strangely, polar melt and snow has not been informed of this change... here's the seasonal one for North America, minus Greenland:



Can you see the spring and summer trend, whilst autumn is flatter than Kansas.

maybe one of these famous ever shifting oscillations.

Have a great day GeraldRube.

P.S. Just wonder why they picked 2002 as turning point. The chart seemingly drawn on GISTEMP data, which shows:

2000 0.34
2001 0.33
2002 0.64
2003 0.51
2004 0.62
2005 0.59
2006 0.56
2007 0.74
2008 0.28
2009 0.49
2010 0.69

And 2011, well it's an La Nina year, so far, and a second one building... who knows you'll be needing your Wellingtons in Texas... for sure, the presence shows that we're still warming, regardless.

So, dear GeraldRube, global cooling started in 2002, David Autumns praying for more sunspots to come around for a normal winter IHBY. Think you've been sweating your panties off lately, La Nina rebuilding so more heat can be pushed below for later release in a next El Nino. It happens that GISTEMP just released the July figures. Here's global for that month since 2000

2000 0,33
2001 0,51
2002 0,56
2003 0,49
2004 0,19
2005 0,55
2006 0,42
2007 0,55
2008 0,52
2009 0,66
2010 0,51
2011 0,60

Here a summary of the average temps for this month where the USA citizens were advised to get used to warmer summers:

2000-2011: 0,49
2002-2010: 0.49
2002-2005: 0.44
2006-2011: 0.57

I know what I think of this and of the Free Republic and the likes, and it''s food for yours, if you can be enticed to!

Yet another nail in the coffin of UK PLC

http://www.greenwisebusiness.co.uk/news/95-pe...et-crc-deadline-2531.aspx

The CRC, which launched last year, requires large public and private sector organisations to buy allowances to cover emissions produced from their usage of electricity and heat. Under the CRC timetable, organisation had to submit reports about their carbon emissions by July 29.


.... and who will the large public and private sector organisations required to buy allowances to cover emissions produced from their usage of electricity and heat pass this additional and unecessary cost on to?

Hurrah they finally got around to me

Price rise alert: npower announced today that it will be increasing its prices by an average of 15.7% for gas and 7.2% for electricity from 1st October 2011.


This increase will add an extra £133 on to the average annual standard dual fuel bill, which will increase from £1,149 to £1,282 as a result.

Here’s a round up of energy price rises and announcements to date:

ScottishPower raised its prices by 17.4% or £124 for gas and 9.9% or £56 for electricity on 1st August 2011.
