man, that presentation is full of conjecture and falsehoods.
shameful, simply shameful.
The graphs are totally misleading, as they are averages out of very high
variance data.

Here is some additional information.

Arctic sea ice extent is decreasing
(See graph at right)

http://nsidc.org/data/seaice_index/images/n_plot_hires.pn


Global sea level rise has accelerated
http://climate.nasa.gov/keyIndicators/

Sea level rise is associated with the thermal expansion of sea water
due to climate warming and widespread melting of land ice.
The average rate of sea level rise has increased as follows:

1870 - 1990 1.7 mm/year
1993 - 2010 3.26 mm/year


Giant Antarctic glacier is thinning

In addition:

The global lower troposphere temperature anomaly is increasing

This above graphs show that since 1995 the fluctuations lie almost
entirely above the zero axis, whereas several decades ago they were
evenly balanced above and below the axis.

How did they measure the 1.7 mm per year? How did they measure sea
level in 1890? Frankly I doubt the methodology. There is no such thing
as the thermal expansion of the ocen. Because water does not expand
when it is heated. in the range of 32 to 86 F. Most ocean water falls
into that range.

This case is closed

Yes, Ice and glaciers have been decreasing. Graph goes back at least
1800. Did you get the memo? The ice age is over!

HIGHLY suspect data brought to you by the same people who "lost" the
priceless data and images of mankind's first trip to the moon!
Satellite data for last period show NO change from previous recent
periods and NO change since before industrial revolution.

Probably. See Ice age memo.

Interesting graph. Of course the KEY item which you made the mistake
of including is the effect of volcanic eruptions. Note how "blue"
areas coincide with large vulcanism. Note how the recent red area has
NO volcanic cooling to pull the graph down. Duh.

And note that NONE of this data substantiates the bogus claim that CO2
as a greenhouse gas can have ANY significant effect on global
temperature. It can't. It's a lie. It's a scam designed to grab
trillions of "cap and trade" dollars. One might as well "bounce a
basketball" to save the planet! It'll be great! Lots of action to
show you really CARE about the planet! Lots of media coverage to
"educate" the public about saving the planet. And NOTHING done to
solve any REAL problems. Has anyone noticed that the Gulf of Mexico is
covered with Oil? Do I need to remind you that the ocean houses the
beginning of the food chain that keeps us all alive. Are you all
idiots? Oh wait. I'm bouncing a basketball to clean the Gulf of
Mexico! Grab a basketball and help me do it!
