Yes, it is. And I find amusing people who use the scientifically foolish argument "we're in an Ice Age, so no global warming" without realising that mean temperatures should decrease or maintain stable and glaciers should increase rather than melt. It backfires.

Honestly, arguing whether global warming exists is like arguing whether the ocean has a bottom. It's a fact. What some people may question, whether genuinely curious or out of stubborn ignorance, is whether the anthropic influence is significant.

It seems that global warming has been slowing down for at least the last 20 years. In other words, the rate of warming is less.

In addition, there are signs that the reason for the reduced GW rate is because global cooling is happening. "As we move further into 2020, solar activity dwindles.  This year, solar activity will be marked as the lowest in over 200 years. The low in the sun's 11-year cycle will also have at least some repercussions for the climate here on Earth," - https://www.freedomsphoenix.com/News/275139-2020-01-17-2020-will-have-lowest-solar-activity-in-200-years-severe.htm. In addition, many volcanoes that are spewing sun-blocking dust into the air like the cooling done by Krakatoa in the 1800s.
