The Warmest Decade on Record

Data has been collected about the Earth's temperature. Records extend back to 1850. 160 years. The Earth extends back 4.5 billion years. 160 years versus 4,500,000,000. The warmest decade on record? What can this possibly mean if records have been kept for just 16 decades versus 450 million decades. Data collected represents 16/450,000,000 or 0.0000035556% of all earth's climactic data.

The Thames used to freeze over and Greenland used to be green! The vikings named it from it's colour. In the grand scheme of history of the planet, that was not so long ago.
