Kelvin, because it is an absolute scale. This means that 2 K is twice as "hot" as 1 K etc (whereas 1 degree C is NOT twice as "hot" as 2 deg C).

However, that facts that

(a) people are familiar with Celsius and

(b) everyday temperatures are small numbers

means the Celsius scale remains popular.
