What is the scariest up-to-date graph you've seen regarding the climate? I don't mean to raise fear, but this graph terrifies me (even if you'd normalize the y-axis to zero). Source: https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/monthly-average-surface-temperatures-by-year?facet=none&uniformYAxis=0

i’m no expert. but this is only 70 years of data. are there charts like this that extend to 100s? 1000s? of years?

Of course. For more than 50k years, you can't see the sharp Δ in miniscule amount of time (actually even in 1000 year scale that's hard to see). Also it'd be meaningless since we're looking at humans being able to manage it. The fact is Δ per year change has never been this high (except extinction events).
