Team Info
- Group name: The Vindicators
- Group members: Oliver Baldwin Edwards, Julia Ruggiero, and Calvin Woods
Purpose
Our research question: How has temperature changed across the world since 1975? Our x variable will be the year, and our y variable will be average temperature. We will sort this data by continent (Africa, Asia, Americas, Europe, Oceania) as well as view how the average temperature has changed worldwide.
We got our data from Data World here.
