until someone finds a reason why this method might be unreliable, it isn't controversial.. it's a scientific fact with implications..
Hey, have you noticed how everyone is saying you're wrong and nobody is upvoting your replies? Maybe take a moment to reflect on why that might be.
there are a lot of trolls, and they like to congregate.. they hope that by bullying someone they can make bad facts disappear..
but it's pretty obvious none of them have even made a serious trip to a university library
these new numbers clearly are now the best estimate we have
You really need to calm down and reflect.
I have a PhD and a dozen of published and recognized papers.
You are misusing the term "fact". Just because you think something is fact, does not make it so.
You really think everyone else here is a troll?
facts don't care about your feelings
Do you always jump to conclusive thoughts when reading research?
lol so funny people can't read a paper and reactively downvote anyone who contradicts what they feel reality should be. You're correct until we find a way to disprove this (eg somebody repeats it and finds it flawed) obviously robust study we need treat it as fact.
To anyone reading this comment thinking it makes a kind of sense on the surface (I'm no scientist) - keep reading. This comment is clearly meant to be just a bit of shit stirring
Different parts of the world are warming at different rates. So while it might be true that a part of the Caribbean warmed by 1.7 degrees, that doesn't tell us much about the Earth as a whole.
