Out of interest, how do you interpret that diagram?

Me I see a gradual increase since the 50’s, with the very latest year being very low (20 degrees) probably because the dataset has not yet been updated for this year.

How do you read it?

Yeah, can’t conclude anything about 2025. But it seems the temperatures are mostly stable over many decades, with large variations between each year.
It’s always entertaining that those warning of science being used to introduce tyrrany are gleefully embracing tyrrany in the next breath.
