I thought I'd put up this chart, which is a calculation of the percentage of global warming that has happened since any point in the past. As usual, for any year Y:
total_warming(Y-to-present) = total_trend(Y-to-present)*(present-Y)
The total global warming from NOAA's data is now
Would you say this refutes the notion that present warming is due to a recovery from the LIA? I would imagine that such a recovery would have been more rapid soon after the end of the little ice age, and would be slowing down the further we moved away from it.
