U Of Reading’s Stripe Chart Is Propaganda … But 2000-Year Chart Makes Today’s Warming Look Tame By P Gosselin on 2. November 2019 Recently many readers may have noticed how alarmists and activists have been using the so-called stripe chart (see following chart) to illustrate the warming the planet has recently experienced. The popular stripe chart was created by “lead scientist” Ed Hawkins of the National Centre for Atmospheric Science, University of Reading, NCAS, UoR.

Pretty colors sway dimwitted alarmists The stripe chart depicts the global temperature trend, but only since 1850, and is designed of course to make the recent warming look dramatic through the use of darkening fire red stripes on the right side. But note that the real temperature difference between dark blue and dark red is ONLY about 1°C! Naturally a regular, boring old line curve is all one needs, but it just doesn’t produce the dramatic panic reaction propagandists love to see from their gullible followers.
