RE: Temperature Increases First.
where'd the data come from?
400K is Ice cores...
what's the rest?
what are the proxies?

I already answered this question in my previous comment
All this data comes from ice cores, they have ice cores that are over 800,000 years old
Proxy temperature just means the temperature was derived from ice cores. Humans only started recording reliable temperature records starting in the 1880s

Proxy (climate)
In the study of past climates ("paleoclimatology"), climate proxies are preserved physical characteristics of the past that stand in for direct meteorological measurements and enable scientists to reconstruct the climatic conditions over a longer fraction of the Earth's history. Reliable global records of climate only began in the 1880s, and proxies provide the only means for scientists to determine climatic patterns before record-keeping began.
Examples of proxies include ice cores, tree rings, sub-fossil pollen, boreholes, corals, lake and ocean sediments, and carbonate speleothems. The character of deposition or rate of growth of the proxies' material has been influenced by the climatic conditions of the time in which they were laid down or grew.
see..that wasn't hard was it?
haha, not it was not hard at all, I am glad you are finally beginning to understand
