This is how climate data has always been presented. Data is plotted to a baseline average temperature, even the skeptic scientists involved in the field of climatology (yes, they do exist, I know! Shocking!) do this method of statistical analysis of the data. Stop being delusional.

How about you go read the UAH or RSS satellite data yourself that the claims that 2016 is the hottest year on record are based on, or alternatively you can continue to shitpost.
