Oh, you mean these temperatures ....
Nope, no warming here!
Global Temperatures , What The Stations Free Of UHI Say
John L. Daly
http://wanews.org/focus/globalwarming/Default.aspx
Listed here are a set of historical temperature graphs from a large
selection of mostly non-urban weather stations in both hemispheres. This
data originated with the NASA Goddard Institute (GISS) in the USA and
the Climatic Research Unit (CRU) of the University of East Anglia,
Norwich, England. (The graphs have been generated from that data using
the Microsoft Works spreadsheet module). With a few exceptions, large
cities have been excluded because of Urban Heat Island Effect
distortions to long-term data. Stations with data up to 2000 or beyond
are indicated in red (e.g. `Data to 2001').
Since all the models indicate the high latitudes and polar regions
should warm the most, it is clear that these regions should show strong
positive signs by now of a greenhouse-induced warming. To test the
model's hypotheses of enhanced high latitude warming, take particular
note of those graphs from polar and sub-polar regions which should show,
by now, very large overall warmings. For this reason, many such polar
stations have been included.

seasonal temperatures. Data to 2001
Signy (British), and Orcadas (Argentinian), South Orkney Islands. These
islands lie deep in the Southern Ocean,
just north of the Antarctic Peninsula, a region about which warming
claims have frequently been made.
Map of the region. Data to 2000
Stanley, Falkland Islands, lies deep in the South Atlantic, 200 miles
east of southern Argentina. Data to 1980

The Antarctic Scientific Bases
Amundsen-Scott Base, South Pole, Antarctica, as far south as you can
get, right in the centre of the Antarctic continent. If it can't warm
here, it can't warm anywhere. CO2 data obtained at the South Pole is
also shown for purposes of comparison with the temperature. Data to 2000
Casey Station, Antarctica. An Australian base on the eastern Antarctic
coast. Seasonal and annual data to 2000
Davis Station, Antarctica. An Australian base on the
eastern Antarctic coast. Data to 1999
Halley Bay, Antarctica, a British base on the western
Antarctic coast facing the Weddell Sea. Data to 2000
Mawson Station, Antarctica. An Australian base on
the eastern Antarctic coast. Data to 1999
Mirny Station, Antarctica. A Russian base on the same coast as Davis
And Casey. Map. Data to 2000
Scott Base, Antarctica, a New Zealand base on the coast of the Ross
Sea, due south of NZ. Data to 1993
Signy & Orcadas, South Orkney Islands. A British and an Argentinian
station close together. Map. Data to 2000
Syowa (Japanese) and Molodezhnya (Russian). On the coast of Enderby
Land. Data to 2000
Vostok Base, Antarctica. This is a Russian base deep in the Antarctic
continent at the top of the ice plateau,
3,420 metres above sea level. Vostok holds the dubious distinction of
having recorded the coldest
temperature ever measured on Earth, -89.2 deg C. in 1983. (1983 was a
`warm' year globally). Data to 1999

"What if a small group of these world leaders were to conclude the
principal risk to the earth comes from the actions of the rich
countries?...In order to save the planet, the group decides: Isn't the
only hope for the planet that the industrialized civilizations collapse?
Isn't it our responsibility to bring this about?" Maurice Strong,1990
