the purpose of the charts is to show that temperature fluctuates all the time, it's not a new thing for the temp to go up, it has happened many times before and it will happen many more times, it's just what happens.

and as for the dates of the charts, they end about 7 years ago. I don't think that 7 years if enough to do significant damage, especially because the years prior to that were years when people had little to no pollution regulations so I would think the most recent years would be better, and if they aren't, than it is probably not the US's fault, it is probably the fault of rapidly growing/expending economies like China, who has started to use more and more oil and emit more and more pollution.
