Climate scientists would say in response that changes in ocean circulation can't sustain a net change in global temperature over such a long period (ENSO for example might raise or lower global temperature on a timescale of one or two years, but over decades there would be roughly zero net change).
... Conclusions Since 1950, global average temperature anomalies have been driven firstly, from 1950 to 1987, by a sustained shift in ENSO conditions, by reductions in total cloud cover (1987 to late 1990s) and then a shift from low cloud to mid and high - level cloud, with both changes in cloud cover being very widespread.
The last 500 million years with no sustained average global temperature change demonstrates CO2, in spite of being a greenhouse gas, has no effect on climate.
Global warming is the increase in the average temperature of the earth's atmosphere (especially a sustained increase that causes climatic changes).
