Annual Global Temperatures From 1850-2017
Climate Lab Book, Ed Hawkins
“This set of visualisations highlight how we have witnessed temperatures change across the globe over the past century or more. The colour of each stripe represents the temperature of a single year, ordered from the earliest available data at each location to now. All other superfluous information is removed so that the changes in temperature are seen simply and undeniably.” Ed Hawkins
“Central England Temperatures from 1772-2018. Each stripe is coloured according to the average temperature in that year, with the darkest blues representing <7.8°C & the darkest reds >10.8°C. Lots of variations from year-to-year, with a clear warming trend in modern times.” Ed Hawkins @ed_hawkins
