NASA Releases 135-Year Video showing Global Temperature Rise

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration has released an animation on their website that illustrates how average global surface temperatures have risen since record-keeping started in the late 19th century. The video helps to visually illustrate the rise of Earth's temperatures, spanning a 135-year period from when temperature records were first recorded, in 1880, through 2015, the hottest year on record.

The baseline average used in the video was derived from temperature averages from 1951 through 1980, with blue colors representing below-average trends, and orange representing above average temperatures.

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration also released a similar video, showing the same warming trend over the past 135 years.
