Global Warming: The Pirate Connection

I think there can no longer be any doubt of a great scientific conspiracy to cover up the connection between increasing global temperatures and the well-documented drop in pirates. Venganza has the goods:


For your interest, I have included a graph of the approximate number of pirates versus the average global temperature over the last 200 years. As you can see, there is a statistically significant inverse relationship between pirates and global temperature.
