The 2009 State of the Climate report, issued by US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), has declared that anthropogenic global warming [AGW] is getting worse. It has 7 rising indicators to prove this. These 7 indicators are shown below from the report.
RESPONSE:
1. A number of the graphs show similar increases from 1900 to 1950 when CO2 increased minimally.
2. The increase is not unusual from a longer perspective.
3. Of the 7 indicators 6 show a decline, some from 1998, others from 2003. The only rising indicator, sea level, has had a declining rate of increase since 2003.
4. These changes show warming, but not that it is caused by CO2.
