Over the past one thousand years, the temperature of the earth has consistently risen, with every year recording a higher temperature than the previous year.
true or false?

Ans: False

Accurate temperature records from over 1000 years is very sparse, however based on a quantitative reconstruction of data it has been observed that during the little ice age period the temperature remained almost constant. A steady rise has only been recorded over the past 150 years.

Thus, the statement that over the past one thousand years, the temperature of the earth has consistently risen, with every year recording a higher temperature than the previous year is False.
