In 1999, James Hansen published this map – showing that most of the US had cooled between 1950 and 1998.

in the U.S. there has been little temperature change in the past 50 years, the time of rapidly increasing greenhouse gases — in fact, there was a slight cooling throughout much of the country
I can’t generate the equivalent current map, because the GISS web site has been broken for two weeks – but Hansen’s current US temperature graph shows a strong warming trend from 1950-1998.
Our trusted government scientists have taken it upon themselves to rewrite the nation’s history.
