Climate Change and Carbon dioxide – teachers notes
... CO2 does absorb infrared radiation There have been cycles/variations in the temperature of the Earth. The temperature of the Antarctic and the concentration of carbon dioxide follow a similar pattern. This is consistent with CO2 acting as an amplifier of climate change. There are natural sou ...

Instrumental temperature record
The instrumental temperature record shows fluctuations of the temperature of earth's climate system. Initially the instrumental temperature record only documented land and sea surface temperature, but in recent decades instruments have also begun recording ocean temperature. Data is collected from thousands of meteorological stations around the globe and through satellite observations. The longest-running temperature record is the Central England temperature data series, that starts in 1659. The longest-running quasi-global record starts in 1850.
