Rubbish. Even IPCC doesn't use it now. Read the Wegman report if you are interested in how it was debunked. Funny how Mann had to be forced to reveal his calculations (these things must be kept secret you know). It was then shown that any data, even random numbers, could be fed into his calculations, to produce the same shaped graphs.

Here's another graph for you. It shows in yellow, the rapid increase in fossil fuel usage after World War 2. It also shows 2 graphs of global temperatures side by side, for the period before 1945 and the period after 1945, showing the reate of temperature increase for each period. Temperature scales are shown on the left and right respectively. Data source: IPCC/UK Met Office/Hadley Centre - Hadcrut3

Alarmist would expect to see a "rapid" and "alarming" rate of temperature rise after 1945, however the reverse is true. The warming rate is less after 1945 than before !!

Conclusion: Man's fossil fuel burning has not caused increased, or "alarming" global warming.

Also shown is the data error range as claimed by IPCC.
