That is a fairly dramatic increase over 2014 and 2016 is predicted to be even hotter. Also 5 of the warmest years on record in the last 10 years.
"It’s official: 2015 was the hottest year on record, beating out 2014 by the widest margin in 136 years of record keeping, U.S. government agencies announced Wednesday. But this new record may not stand for long, as one of the strongest El Niños ever measured combines with the continued warming of the planet to potentially push 2016 to yet another record.“2015 was remarkable even in the context of the larger, long-term warming trend,” Gavin Schmidt, director of NASA’s Goddard Institute for Space Studies, said in a statement."
Dramatic?! Three tenths of a degree? How is that even accurately measurable?
The temperature increase precedes elevated CO2 by about 800 years, but if you make the graph long enough. it appears both happen at the same time.
Like I said, BFD!
According to you the other day it was 100 years. Now it's 800??? Get your "facts" straight. You truly are an embarrassment, even to your denier brethren.

It fluctuates, but humans produce anywhere from 1-4% of the total CO2 each year, the planet naturally produces the other 99-96%. and yet.... that is enough to change the freaking entire climate of the earth? Or so that 6 minute government produced video claims.
