2 degrees/century?????-- maybe, but even that's high
Sorry, NOT a good rebuttal. I quoted the article correctly - the earth's temperature increased by 2 degrees F since 1880. That is the rate that the NOAA Climatologist stated. There is nothing there about 2 degrees per year. Just a rate of 2 degrees F since 1880. That would be 2 divided by 142 which equals .014 degrees F per year.

nice try......feel free to try again!
