Resolves the same as the original on Metaculus.


Resolution criteria

This question belongs to the Bryan Caplan Collection, a series based on bets by economist Bryan Caplan. Find the rest of the series here and Caplan's bet inventory covering most series questions here.

Questions in this series resolve according to the outcome of Bryan Caplan's wager, where a resolution of 'Yes' reflects Caplan winning the bet. Questions resolve per public statements by Caplan.


For this question, a resolution of YES reflects that Caplan won his bet that: the average (2015-2029) - average (2000-2014) <=0.05C.

If Caplan does not announce the outcome, this question resolves per NOAA Global climate time series data (https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/access/monitoring/climate-at-a-glance/global/time-series)

Fine print and additional background information can be found on Metaculus.

@jskf The cropping of the title is very unfortunate here. I almost bet Yes thinking it was 5C, not 0.05C.
