Yipes: Warmist Donald Prothero on the Medieval Warm Period (?): "Global temperatures over this interval did not warm at all, and actually cooled by more than 1°C"

There were numerous small fluctuations of warming and cooling over the last 10,000 years of the Holocene. But in the case of the Mediaeval Warm Period (about 950–1250 A.D.), the temperatures increased by only 1°C, much less than we have seen in the current episode of global warming (see Figure 1). This episode was also only a local warming in the North Atlantic and northern Europe. Global temperatures over this interval did not warm at all, and actually cooled by more than 1°C. [Via M. Hulme]

I thought these guys gave up on trying to prove that there was no Medieval Warm Period after the Hockey Stick fiasco. Now perhaps they can move on to show that the Roman Warm period was only manifest in Rome and the Minoan Warm period only occurred in Minos.
