XKCD’s excellent presentation on historical global temperature and anthropogenic global warming.

Awesome way to put it in a infographic.
This is excellent - a timeline of Earth's average temperature since the last ice age (full post available here). Two key points: firstly, if you look at the very end, you can see how global average temperatures have shot up since the industrial revolution.
And secondly, we are on track for global temperature rises due to man-made global warming of between 4-5 degrees centigrade by the end of this century. That may not sound like much but globally, small changes make a big difference; 4-5 degrees is the same temperature difference between modern times and the last ice age, when the world was a very different place.
Someday we may see this as the moment that we finally decided to save our planet.
