Have you researched the claim of pro-climate change scientists being far left? I'm assuming this claim, as your lieing for grants theory, has no actual evidence to support it.

I'm not even sure what you are referring to. I've never proposed a 'limited window' for significant change. Where have I posted information that has as short a sample period as most of the charts 1engineer posted. Some of them only go back as far as 96.
That aside, the reason you often see information only going back as far as 1978 is that is as far back as we have satellite data. See my previous post for how satellite data was interpolated leading to some incorrect conclusions.
Also this graph and the one below it are showing the same thing. A warming trend.
