   Of course it cooled in the mountains of central Greenland :

   Remember that ice core add a ~60 years smoothing. So, the last dot of   
   GISP2 (1950) is to be compared with the 1920-1980 average, and the   
   average increase smoothed over 60 years is ~0.25 °C since 1950.   
   So, in the mountains of central Greenland, which are much more affected   
   by the global warming than mid-latitudes, temperatures are ~2°C below   
   what they were 2000 years ago, the same amount as hinted from the tree   
   line in the Alps (300 m -> 2.0 °C).   
   A 2 °C warming would be not only tolerable by humans, but much welcome.
