Maximum temperatures are less affected by Urban Heat Island effects than minimum temperatures, and are a better judge of the temperature trend than mean temperatures. As you can see, temperatures in the US have been declining since 1920.
Unfortunately, satellites started recording temperatures right at the 1979 minimum – and have provided cover for scientists who personally benefit from altering the long-term temperature record.
Are you sure they shouldn’t be more worried about an Ice Age? Of course, even if they were, they would still blame evil humans and the internal combustion engine.
Yep, their ignorance has beget their confidence, and they somehow believe humans are one of the main drivers of climate.
