Heating / cooling, it all depends on when you start your baseline. If you go back to a glacial period, we’re warming. If you go back to Earth, day 1, when the planet was thousands of degrees, then we are a long-term cooling trend.
When the news media say global warming they are saying that our fossil fuels are warming the Earth NOW , a degree or so ever few years or decades so that in a short time the Earth will be destroyed by global warming and cities inundated by rising sea levels caused by melting ice caps . this they say will happen in a few years or decades at the most . you are just helping the liberal news media. That's a lie first of all because the Earth is not warming at that rate and hasn't warmed at all in the past 20 years and will actually cool in the next 20 years (look at the solar cycle) . Then its a double lie because our petroleum does not cause the Earth to warm
