In its 2001 report on global climate, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change of the United Nations prominently featured the 'Hockey Stick,' a chart Here was an easy-to-understand graph that, in a glance, posed a threat to major corporate energy interests and those who do their political bidding.

The most critical development in the tale of the hockey stick—the prominent display of the MBH99 graph in the IPCC Third Assessment Report's Summary for
Mann’s “hockey stick” graph, first published in 1998, was featured prominently in the U.N. 2001 climate report. The graph showed a spike in global average temperature in the 20th Century after about 500 years of stability. The Most Controversial Chart in History, Explained Climate deniers threw all their might at disproving the famous “hockey stick” climate change graph. Here’s why they failed. It showed a distinct ‘hockey stick’ shape (a flat ‘handle’ for the first 900 years, then a sharp ‘uptick’ or hockey stick blade depicting temperatures for the modern era. In effect, Mann’s graph flattened nine centuries of climate variation and ‘disappeared’ both the Medieval Warm Period as well as the later Little Ice. The report moved quickly through climate science circles. Mann and a colleague soon lengthened the shaft of the hockey stick back to the year 1000 AD--and then, in 2001, the UN's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Changeprominently featured the hockey stick in its Third Assessment Report. The "hockey stick" describes a reconstruction of past temperature over the past 1000 to 2000 years using tree-rings, ice cores, coral and other records that act as proxies for temperature . The reconstruction found that global temperature gradually cooled over the last 1000 years with a sharp upturn in the 20th Century. If we mistakenly took the hockey stick seriously–that is, if we believed that natural fluctuations in climate are small–then we might conclude (mistakenly) that the cooling could not be just a

The name evokes scenes of hockey players skating on ice, but the so-called “hockey stick graph” is really about the human impact on global warming. USC Dornsife climate scientist Julien Emile
