A media personality argues that global temperatures are not rising, because every year an increase is reported such as 0.08 degrees C. The difference from the previous year is less than the margin of error of about 0.15 degrees C, so that difference should be ignored. What is a strong counterargument?

Answer

:we are told that every year the temperature rises by 0.08degrees Centigrade,

So the difference between margin of error and the increase is much higher

That is

0.15-0.08=0.07

But remember Margin of error=Critical value *Standard deviation of population

And it is a quantity that measures accuracy

So the counter argument is that this is still an increase and it should be considered.
