   #1.  The little ice age was still going 200 years ago.   
      
   #2.  200 years is not representational of an interglacial   
   which is popularly dated to almost 12,000 years ago, while   
   accounting for the Younger Dryas cooling is more like 15   
   thousand years old.   
      
   #3.  You're comparing the present interglacial to itself,   
   which is the opposite of science.   
      
   #4.  It was warmer in the past, during this interglacial.   
      
   #5.  The previous interglacial was warmer.   
      
   #6.  As "Stagnation" is impossible, as "Climate Change"   
   is a given in that we are inside of a glacial/interglacial   
   cycle, the alternative to "Warm" is "Cold," and nothing   
   could be worse for humanity than cold... another glacial   
   period.   
      
   #7.  Sane people, if given the power, would choose to make   
   the earth warmer. The pre ice age norm was warmer, and   
   the alternative to NOT ending the ice age, not leaving the   
   glacial/interglacial cycle is the guarantee that humanity   
   will face many more glacial periods in the future, starting   
   not too far into the future...   
      
   Worrying about "Warmer" during an ice age would be stupid   
   under any circumstances. Considering that the science isn't   
   real, that the case for "Warmer" has never been made, it's   
   even dumber.
