I'll rebut it even though no point has been made. In the case of the first graph it must be stated that just because two events occur together and track in a similar fashion does not establish a cause and effect relationship. It is an interesting and theory that increase concentrations of Co2 can cause warming but the evidence is circumstantial at best. The rise in Co2 in PPM is analogous to pissing in the ocean to increase the salinity. The Y-axis on the second graph and the lack of other data make it highly suspect of the fallacy of lies, damn lies and statistics. Temperature Anomaly, it looks like scales were chosen to amplify a foregone conclusion. The lack of scientific rigor and fanatic hostility to other view points is appalling. There are historic periods in the northern hemisphere were temperature were higher than now. Let's keep the environment clean and healthy, but try to avoid the hysteria and lemming like rush to hand over to governments even more taxing and control authority over the use of energy.
