Yep, and we need to remember we are still recovering from the Medieval 
Mini-Ice age.

As experts say, whether the Earth is cooling or warming all depends on from 
what point in time you measure.

Further if you look at the LONG term trend... the current overall warming 
trend seems to be part of a much large long term trend which is going to 
occur despite what we may or may not do.
