denialism can be based on very single micro facts statements versus a global... point of view.
now sometimes the global point of view can itself being too small:

Just stumbled across this site. No Idea of the validity of the information presented.

I would recommend not using that site as a source:

Quote (wikipedia)
Marc Morano is the owner and founder of the website Climate Depot, a project of the Committee for a Constructive Tomorrow....

He is a former employee of Jim Inhofe. While working for Inhofe, he served as his director of communications beginning in June 2006. As communications director for the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee under the Bush administration, he designed the EPW press blog, which won a Golden Mouse Award in 2007. His career began working for Rush Limbaugh from 1992 to 1996, during which time he was often known as "Limbaugh's man in Washington". After 1996, he began working for Cybercast News Service, where he was the first to publish articles accusing John Kerry of exaggerating his military service record. In addition, Morano has worked for Howard Phillips and Paul Weyrich. He produced a minority report in 2007 entitled, "Over 400 Prominent Scientists Disputed Man-Made Global Warming Claims in 2007."

He followed this up a year later with a report of over 650 scientists who, he claimed, believed that global warming was not caused by human activity. This figure has since been updated to "over 700." Critics of this list charge that it includes a significant number of people who are not sufficiently well-qualified to assess climate science, such as author Ray Kurzweil and a number of TV meteorologists, such as Steve Baskerville, as well as scientists whose expertise is in geomagnetism. On December 4, 2012, Morano debated Bill Nye the Science Guy on the topic of global warming on CNN's Piers Morgan Tonight. At the end of 2012, Media Matters for America named Morano the "Climate Change Misinformer of the Year."

10,000 years ago was the most recent global ice age. Global average temperature has increased since then, too.


The world's most recent glacial period began about 110,000 years ago and ended around 12,500 years ago. The maximum extent of this glacial period was the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) and it occurred around 20,000 years ago.

Yeah stars don't expand over time get real.

although our sun dont got enough mass to go supernova. it will go red giant in few billion years and expand during that phase.
