You are just plain wrong. Sorry to burst your bubble but the data you have been looking at is skewed. You are just hard headed and unable to change to the facts of the matter.Quote from dcraig:
You are just making up nonsense. There is no observational evidence that the planet is cooling. You known this, which is why you make up, or more likely just regurgitate rubbish about ice age cycles and current warming that echoes around the denialist blogosphere. No matter how many echoes, it remains nonsense.

"The week before the latest UN's world leaders' conference there was another UN climate conference in Geneva where one of the UN's own leading climate scientists and computer modellers, Professor Mojib Latif from Germany's Leibniz Institute of Marine Sciences at Keil University, stated that from recent research he has conducted he has had to conclude that global warning has ceased."
"He added that the planet is currently cooling and will likely continue to do so for another 20 years."

Quote from dcraig:
The planet is NOT cooling. All observational evidence points to the planet rapidly warming. All temperature records show the planet warming. Loss of ice sheet mass, retreat of the glaciers, phenological changes all show the planet is warming. Furthermore the rate of warming is accelerating. The current rate of warming is ~ 0.2C per decade. The rate of warming is far too rapid to be accounted for by Milankovitch Cycles. At 0.2C per decade, the planet would have warmed 20C in 1000 years which is an absurd rate of warming compared to that due to past Milankovitch Cycles.
Milankovitch Cycles cannot account for the current warming.

The majority of scientific research in the 60s-70s predicted global warming. A fairly small percentage predicted cooling:

Increased concentrations of greenhouse gases are what is causing the warming
