A few years from now we will see how these temperature datapoints look, wether they continue to be consistent, or not.

Even tho, it won't be a proof. It's arguably not possible to produce even statistical proofs with decades of measurements in a very complex system like a planets weather.

And probably never possible to produce a proof in the sense that most deniers would accept, a proof with the absolute replicability of, say, our gravitational acceleration.
