The only thing which saved Earth from certain disaster, was Hansen retroactively erasing the warm temperatures of the 1930s and 1940s.
Disrupting the Borg is expensive and time consuming!

The following graphs, from an article of Joe D’Aleo of 2010, show the high increase in Arctic temperatures in the 1930’s and 40’s,

with a maximum variation of approx. +4 C from the early 1900’s to the highest temps in the 1930’s. We have, 4C ~ 1.8 * 4 F = 7.2 F , which is reasonably close to the estimate of 10 F in the paper.
Joe D’Aleo’s paper is this:

Hansen can change some graphs of governmental agencies but cannot change the known fact that the period of the WWII is called “the warm years” in the Arctic for a good reason,

At those years the Arctic icecap may have had strong oscillations as happened in the last few years, but there was also a strong recovery just after the war, related to a strong plunge of the PDO into negative phase at that time. Now we can reasonably expect a similar recovery when the AMO and PDO become both negative in the next few years.
