  b. Half of the increase in Earths average temperature from the 20th century increased during
  its last 30 years.
  c. Nine of the ten years during the first decade of the 21st Century were in the top 10 warmest
  years of a 160-year-long record.
  d. Earths present average temperature is the warmest it has been since 1400, which is as far
  back as we can go with certainty by direct and indirect evidence.
  e. During the recent increase in Earths temperature the greatest amount of warming
  occurred during the day near the equator.
