Ice age?

It's interesting when people (scientists) begin talking about the "last ice age".

Are we in an interglacial period - out of a glacial period - still in the million year glaciation period?

But scientists do agree that the last period of glaciation peeked around 22,000 years ago and "ended" around 10,500 BCE.

The earth has generally warmed since then with alternating warm and cool periods.

So 150 years of recorded data for 12,500 years equals 1.2% of the time period????

Does our climate change? Yes. Is it man's fault? Most likely not.
