MODERATORS
Standard deviations is a deliberately misleading tactic to present this data, this is in reality a small temperature change.
It's a form of normalization to highlight how abnormal the change is.
Do you really think someone would manipulate data to show a more sensationalized image of what's happening? Then post it on the internet with a misleading message?
Do you really think someone would go on the internet and lie like that?
Edit: clearly my sarcasm didn't land. Also, edit, a word.
