This interglacial will last 20 thousand years. It started 10 thousand years ago. The earth has been warming ever since. The earth will continue warming for the next 10 thousand years until the next ice age sets in, due to the Milankovitch cycle.
I can’t find it in an internet search but, because thermal momentum exists, I would bet the earth’s south pole has already significantly surpassed pointing toward the sun at the southern summer solstice.
Maps of Antartica have been found that show it was ice-free many thousands of years ago. It is reverting to it's former ice-free state, and this happens in cycles over tens of thousands of years. Copies of these maps were made several hundred years ago, based on older maps, and have astonished modern archaeologists in their accuracy of describing land features only now discovered via satellite technology. The Earth is not fixed in one state, but changes in cyclic fashion according to natural changes in electromagnetic fluxes between the Sun and planets, and shifting of magnetic poles. Al Gore is wrong!
