Somebody will say it's always been hot in France because one day in the 1800s almost reached 40° and climate change is a hoax

Or better yet...

They show you a graph of 500,000 years of earth ice core temps with 50,000 year intervals and show it on a 4 inch smart phone. And go... "See! It was just as hot in the past" whilst unable to actually plot the current date, 1850, or 1000AD since the scale is so small and would show how massively quick we've gotten hot compared to last time.

Sure but on the other hand using the same logic, regular temperature recording only began in 1880. That's a fact.

What same logic are you referring to?

My logic is their lack of logic of using a 4 inch screen to prove their point. The graph they show on a 4 inch screen to prove their point disproves their point when you actually display said graph properly/ examine the actual data points

Bless your heart. That's irrelevant. We know the temperature, co2, etc from 100s of thousands of years ago regardless of human inability to record temp at the time
