Can you recommend a URL that lists these, as I'm trying to convince a
sceptic that the world's temperature *is* rising.

Hi Paul

It depends how much your sceptic knows.

He's an American who is convinced that Kyoto/Global Warming is nothing
more than a scam to undermine American industry.

Your best bet is to concentrate on figures from the surface record that show
a much steeper temperature rise so you would do best to use the links that
Martin Rowley has provided and try not to get sucked into an argument about
why the surface record trend is greatly different to the satellite measured
trend and the balloon observed trend (if your sceptic should be aware of
this). Anyone who can solve that puzzle conclusively will be on the way to
settling the global warming debate.

How about a graph that shows rising CO2 levels over the past couple of
centuries?
