I particularly like that they make a clear distinction between short-term local effects (El Nino, La Nina), short-term cyclic effects (solar irradiance), and long term global trends (temperature increases). It&#8217;s those short-term local or cyclic effects that most global climate change deniers like to use to cheat the public out of an understanding of\u00a0 the long-term effects. The NASA article quickly makes the distinction and nicely illustrates how those effects are accounted for.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A beautiful press release from NASA just appeared which concisely and directly summarizes the analysis of global temperature since 1880 using three data sources.
