So let's use your cartoon as our data (BTW xkcd is awesome). From 20000 BCE to 8700 BCE we see a 4-5 degree increase in temps. No fossil fuel industry exists yet. The only man based atmospheric effects are from camp fires. Yet your data shows a 4-5 degree increase.

Then from 8500 BCE to 1000 BCE we see another rise in temp to over what it is today. Still no fossil fuel industry in existence yet temps are equal or slightly higher than present day.

Then roughly a 1000 years ago (while my Viking ancestors were running around Newfoundland and Greenland) we see a 1-2 degree drop up till 16 years ago we see a slight uptick of less than a degree.

So based on your presented data (xkcd cartoon) before man made fossil fuel industry even existed we had the largest increase in world wide temps. Yet somehow this is a man made issue? Your presented data doesn't seem to support it. So you're right, Why are we still arguing about this?????
 
Currently 70* in my house and I have a heater blowing on my feet, which have slippers on them. When it gets below 55*F, I go into hibernation and won't go outside.

Below is an image of what living in FAI does to people.

As to the climate change thing, we can talk about the "problem" and causes all day long, but until we're actually willing to do something meaningful about it (nuclear) all such discussion is merely political bloviating.

Wind and solar ain't solving this "problem."

-40 was the start limit for the 1900C. Sat it out in the hangar a few mornings in SoDak.

That s#$t was cold....

The only thing I got from that picture was that pretty much everything awesome that has happened in history happened soon after America declared its independence.

Almost 1800 years of walking and 100 years into our history we're flying around and 50 years after that we're traveling in space. Too bad America didn't exist 1000 years ago we'd all be getting massages 24/7 sipping on martinis made by robots and the temperature across the entire Earth would be 72* and sunny. All the time.

Lowest I've been in was -50 with the B200. Had a heater in the engines and the cockpit. Really lucky we didn't damage the G1000 on startup. The displays were not very happy!
