>Since we're recovering from the Little Ice Age

This is the big lie, promulgated by the denialists. The experts in climate science say, unequivocally that human activity and accumulation of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere is causing this accelerating trend. Something has to CAUSE a warming trend. Is it wobbling of the earths orbit (No)? Is it solar output variation (No!)? The experts have looked at these factors and came to the logical conclusion re. greenhouse gases. It's not sufficient to say "We're recovering from an Ice Age". That's pure nonsense.

You're question on the 50's and 60's is irrelevant, as it doesn't change the big picture. Perhaps you can get an explanation from the authors of the data. Neither you nor I can solve it here. I'm sure the scammers, publishing that "analysis" didn't bother asking them.
