It's only the Earth's surface, not the core.  As to how: distribute a lot of
temperature
sensors over the Earth (including but not limited to IR cameras on a bunch
of satellites,
whose orbits allow them to collectively see the entire surface of the
Earth), and monitor
them for a year.  Really, a trivial exercise in experiment design.

 He says that is "the claim" - it's not.  The claim is over a much shorter
timespan than
that.
