I quite agree. Despite the claims of "climate change" doomsayers, a strong

human activity is forestalling the latter, that's a good thing.

it's very clear that there is no global cooling nor will there be any
time soon and that global warming may spell the end of life as we know
it.

nope.

for a timeline:

That was constructed for the purpose of fooling children.

cite proof that was the goal.

Look where it first was published
http://imgs.xkcd.com/comics/earth_te...e_timeline.png - xkcd
Comics. Look at the carefully tailored inaccuracies in the
presentation of the data ...

Here is a
much more accurate representation constructed in answer to the first:

When you bring up the image click on it to bring it up to its full

'peer reviewed cartoon' ???

seriously??

Read to the bottom and you will see the attributions, all of which
have been peer reviewed.

and it also shows a warming trend.

And so it should.

But it also shows the Medieval Warm period, the Roman Warm Period and
the Minoan Warm Period. The last two of the above three are totally
ignored by the cartoon you cited. That cartoon had to admit the
existence of the Medieval Warm Period following the failure of Michael
Mann et al to eliminate it from the record so instead the cartoon
tries to mimise it "Too regional to affect the global average much".

Before you are tempted to believe that claim you should read about the
'Mapping Project for the Medieval Warm Period' by Leuning and
Varenholt which makes use of over 900 independent site studies by
other. See
https://wattsupwiththat.com/2017/01/...l-warm-period/
or http://tinyurl.com/jpakayz for a discussion. The site also includes
a link to the complete map and list of data sources.
