Every year after 2014 will be warmer than every year before 2014
June 16, 2019
GISS calendar year average above 1951-1980 'baseline':
2014: .73C
2015: .87
2016: .99
2017: .90
2018: .82
2019 is coming on strong, possibly a new record. No chance it will be cooler than 2014, and 2014 was above the next warmest year, 2010's .70C.
It's hard to call five-plus years a fluke, and even if it's a cycle, the signal of .2C rise per decade is rising above the noise. Absent a massive volcanic eruption, we're not looking back even to the significant warming that was experienced just nine years ago - we're off in uncharted territory.
Might be something worth betting over for the next time denialists say something foolish.
