Dr. @MichaelEMann
may well be the most hated scientist in conservative America, especially for his peer-reviewed studies, including "THE GRAPH," which upsets their deep devotion to climate denialism.

Video falsely claims scientists exaggerated 'hockey stick' climate chart

A speaker in a video viewed hundreds of thousands of times on social media claims scientists removed data from a graph to exaggerate global warming. This is false; the chart includes global data that make regional warming stand out less, and such periods do not disprove human-caused climate change.

@GeraldKutney @MichaelEMann can anyone explain to me why the mediaeval warm period isn't warmer than the preceding years?
@pucky @GeraldKutney @MichaelEMann
I'll have a go as a non-expert. Two things about the Mediaeval Warm Period are a) it wasn't a global event https://doi.org/10.1038/s41586-019-1401-2 , b) the global century-on-century trend is roughly cooling since the Holocene thermal maximum 6,500 years ago, so 'warm' is not a misnomer in relation to what followed https://ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6675609/. (Choice of proxies or methods may give slightly different results, but Mann et al 98 has been replicated many times since.)
