There has been a lot of debate recently regarding whether Global
warming is actually taking place, or whether it is only happening in
certain regions of the World, such as North West Europe, and in
particular the British Isles.

Now much of the basis for Global Warming, although not exclusively, has
been placed on the Central England Temperature series (CET), which
clearly shows a warming trend since 1900, I would like to throw down a
challenge for others to join in and find similar temperature series for
the six (6) locations on each of the Worlds continents as listed below.
I will then create graphs from the data.


It's already been done, and shows that the warming is indeed
global. Have a look at

Climate Change & the Greenhouse Effect - (Hadley Centre December 2005)
is also a useful starting point, as it has a basic introduction.
