Wikipedia article on the last glacial maximum about 20,000 years ago. Global warming has been going on for the last 20,000 years, which explains why New Hampshire wasn't buried under a mile of ice back in 1776.

So the claim that human activity over the last fifty years is a major component of global warming leaves a little something to be desired, because the woolly mammoths weren't driving SUVs.

the concern is that we aren’t in an ice age so even if global warming is natural, it will still melt the ice caps and flood the coasts unless we do something about it
