   Dear Phil

    Dear Phil,



   I was wondering whether you have seen the article by David Whitehouse that appeared in
   yesterday's edition of 'The Sunday Telegraph':
   [1]http://www.telegraph.co.uk/opinion/main.jhtml?xml=/opinion/2007/07/15/do1508.xml


   The article included the statement:

   "Looking at annual global temperatures, it is apparent that the last decade shows no
   warming trend and recent successive annual global temperatures are well within each year's
   measurement errors. Statistically the world's temperature is flat.

   The world certainly warmed between 1975 and 1998, but in the past 10 years it has not been
   increasing at the rate it did. No scientist could honestly look at global temperatures over
   the past decade and see a rising curve."

   I would like to respond to the article - do you know if anybody has published an analysis
   of global average temperature over the last decade which shows that the trend is upwards ?


   Best wishes,


   Bob
