More enviro-madness

Apparantly the past twelve months, as measured on a rolling basis (i.e. Feb 2006 to Feb 2007), have been the warmest twelve months since records began a few hundred years ago.

Do you know how much warmer it was? 3 degrees? 2 degrees? Nope. 0.1 degree Celcius. 0.1! Follow standard rounding rules and you get 0 anyway.

And obviously, since the earth is inexorably warming up, the previous record would have been the previous rolling twelve months, right? Jan 2006 to Jan 2007? Well, no. Ok, well in the past couple of years then? No? Past five years? Past ten years? Nope. You have to go back to 1994-5 to get the next-hottest twelve month period, which was of course a meagre 0.1 degrees difference to the current blockbuster.

Global warming. Only because of the amount of hot air politicians and greenies are generating.
