BlueSkiesResearch.org.uk: Fame at last

This is…..big:

And impeccably sourced🙂

It’s not beyond criticism, actually – the timeline doesn’t resolve possible rapid changes in temperature, so the comparison of smoothed paleo reconstruction with modern observations could be considered a bit misleading (see tweets here for example). But this is a relatively minor quibble on what is really a very nice graphical representation.

Congratulations.

(And I'd be delighted to see your sketch of an appropriate revision of the text or the drawing if, given what it is, those can be dequibbled)

Contains a couple of minor errors as I point out in a comment on this topic over on Tamino's Open Mind blog.
