Re: @Naich
"Ice age" got a lot of media attention but was never really broadly supported by climate scientists (warming trends were already predicted and known in the 80s!)
Global warming isn't abandoned as such but was (again) a media phrase and inaccurate. A lot of the world is warming, some parts of it, due to changing weather and climate patterns are cooling. Which some people (possibly like you) were using to dismiss the whole thing outright because "how can there be global warming when "Area X" is getting colder! Run away climate change isn't really abandoned but it currently looks like we MIGHT if everybody sticks to the agreements and keeps up the effort to not just fart out CO2 at high rates dodge that particular bullet. Which is immediately linked to the "we're all gonna fry" mantra. Which we might well still do.
As to evidence the current warming is unusual, I know it's a webcomic, but if you disagree with the data please give a source because I've never found a reason to doubt any particular point about this graph: https://xkcd.com/1732/ (And as noted in the graphic itself, yes there will have been some short term swinging around but upsweeps as seen in the last 50 years are VERY unlikely to have happened without being detectable by the methods used to get this data in the first place.
