Data such as this will be discredited by some as it came out before the UN report. The fact is that govts didn't tell us about global warming until they realised it wasn't able to be hidden for any longer.The important info in this article is that the warmest 8 years have all happened since 1998, which is pretty close to all of them.

Politicians think that the public is dumb, even I can notice a difference over the past 40 years. TN, we may be swimming on the beaches of Iceland and snow ski-ing in Australia.

NEW YORK, Jan. 17    U.S. government climatologists said 2007 tied 1998 as the Earth's second warmest year in a century.</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.earthtimes.org/articles/show/175025,2007-ties-as-2nd-warmest-year-in-a-century.html">National Aeronautics and Space Administration's Goddard Institute for Space Studies in New York said the greatest warming last year occurred in the Arctic and its neighboring high latitude regions. They said global warming has a larger impact in polar areas, since the loss of snow and ice produce more open waters that can absorb more sunlight and warmth.</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.earthtimes.org/articles/show/175025,2007-ties-as-2nd-warmest-year-in-a-century.html">
"As we predicted last year, 2007 was warmer than 2006, continuing the strong warming trend of the past 30 years that has been confidently attributed to the effect of increasing human-made greenhouse gases," said James Hansen, Goddard Institute director.</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.earthtimes.org/articles/show/175025,2007-ties-as-2nd-warmest-year-in-a-century.html"><DIV>
