Last year, global warming reached record high temperatures — and if that news feels like déjà vu, you're not going crazy.
The planet has now had three consecutive years of record-breaking heat.

What do you know. Another hottest year on record...

The 2016 weather year (Dec-Nov) was already cited as the hottest in the record. Dec 2016 was the second-hottest December in the record, behind only December 2015.

Which outliers did they eliminate and why?
Polar ice cores measuring gases in trapped bubbles can reveal the Earth’s temperature record over tens of thousands of years. Palaeoclimatologists look further back, using a different method. They collect sediments from the ocean floor and study the shells of ancient plankton. These shells reveal daily temperature ranges as far back as 200 million years, and show a planet at times frozen from pole to equator, and at other times much hotter than today.

Nobody is saying Climate hasn't changed in the past. What is new and should be studied and discussed, is mankind's activities (since the industrial revolution) potentially expediting potentially catastrophic change. What is foolish is to deny that possibility.
The fact that still needs to be clarified is sad.

Who is denying that possibility? Certainly not 97% of scientist right? Relax dude. Be the change you wish to see in the world. My brother in law is living it. Veggie oil converted cars, straw bail home with conferences throughout the year to teach straw bail construction, solar panels, water catchment. You're a poser. My brother in law is the real deal.

Every time some jackass reminds us that Climate has changed in the past, they must be denying the possibility of AGW since a reminder is totally unnecessary and worthless in the discussion.
Exxon is now in the green camp, if you believe their recent advertising. Perhaps the thousands of scientists and engineers who work for the company have been talking to their supervisors. Or perhaps they have realized the risk of stockholder lawsuits if they knowingly make false statements about the future viability of their products.
