Roughly 1200-1600 AD glaciers increased, 1600-1850 AD fairly stable, afterwards glacial shrinking.

The Earth goes through cooling and warming periods. (real) Scientists aren't sure why, though there are theories. A fairly likely one is the heat from the Sun is not constant, and it varies over periods of several centuries.

So you are basically saying it's comin out of a mini ice age.

I say there are many things. Now if it is coming out of an ice age, surely this means the planet is warming up? Like the entire world on a global scale is warming up.

 

Yes, I am saying we are coming out of a mini ice age and the Earth is probably getting warmer.

And when I say I don't beleive in global warming / climate change I am referring to the caused by manmade  CO2 emissions alarmist theory that seems so popular these days.

 



Yet, today, America's leaders are reenacting every folly that brought these great powers [Russia, Germany, and Japan] to ruin -- from arrogance and hubris, to assertions of global hegemony, to imperial overstretch, to trumpeting new 'crusades,' to handing out war guarantees to regions and countries where Americans have never fought before. We are piling up the kind of commitments that produced the greatest disasters of the twentieth century.
