Is the trend of global warming real?

The present global warming phase began with a gradual rise in average global temperatures after the Industrial Revolution, and accelerated rapidly from the mid 1970s onwards. Temperatures rose 0.75 degrees Celsius over the twentieth century and estimates for the the twenty first century are generally in the range of between 2 and 6 degrees Celsius. The global warming trend is very real.

Current warming did start about 10,200 years ago and all but 0.2 degrees of this warming happened before 1934. The recent upward trend is very real and evident.

Some question whether recent localised cold weather in the north-eastern United States disproves climate change, forgetting that weather and climate (especially global climate) are two very different things. Scientific evidence collected from right around the world presents a very worrying picture of global warming.

How hot is global warming?

The realities of global warming are hotly debated in many scientific circles. Some scientists insist that statistics show the warming trend had stopped and temperatures had returned to normal by 2002. Others insist the worldwide warming trend continues to this day. Available data seems to indicate that if there is a global warming trend, the overall rise in temperature will be no more than 2 or 3 degrees F, and possibly much less.

Why is it cold outside when people are talking about global warming?

Global warming refers to the long-term warming trend of the Earth's climate system, which is driven by increased levels of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. While the planet is warming overall, this doesn't mean that every single location will experience warmer temperatures all the time. Cold weather in a specific location at a specific time does not negate the broader trend of global warming.

What is the gradual warming trend over the earth called?
