Global warming is measured in two ways:
1)The first is via the 'little white box'- ie thermometers mostly in cities
and on land. The problem with this is the "Urban Heat Island Effect"- the
localised result of expanding asphalt and concrete. 
2)Satellites- these measure the mean global temperature and are accurate
one hundreth of a degree. These have been in operation since 1979.
3) Radio sonde baloons

What do they reveal? well the land based measurements show a trend towards
global warming, but the baloons and satellites do not reveal any such
trends.

Global warming? Let's keep the question mark!
