Not when you cherry-pick the range as your graphic does as far as the models used and date range. lol
Or when you expand the scale so that a .5 degree change looks much large than it is and you don't show the other larger swings at various other times to put it in perspective.
Nor are bs "studies" which parse terms and cherry-pick results in order to show "consensus" among 98% of climate scientists which on closer examination actually don't.
Even IPCC concedes that the warming trend largely has been flat to trivial for an extended time period. Far, far below what was predicted via modeling. Even revised models, the only reason most of which are still even marginally within statistical significance being such revisions. In fact, the reasons for that are a primary area of inquiry for those who actually are interested in the science versus politics and bullshit talking points.

It isn't 3% disagreement. The 98%, 97%, whichever similar claims are based on bullshit. Which is easily seen by anyone who's actually taken the time to look at them versus just buying into stupid claims like that in faith-based belief.
