We have temperature data only back to 1850. But that does NOT matter because it is only the last 15 years that is meaningful because of the rapid increase for THAT period. Goggle world population from 1500 until today and notice the graph explodes upward around about 1950. Then google Global Temperature. It takes some time to find a graph with a recent horizontal axis, but if you take the time you will see about the same graph as the rapid increase in the recent 15 years.
