Does this mean the earth is warming up as it has in the past?

Probably not, you say?

For example, during the 'Holocene thermal maximum,' the warmest period of the past 10,000 years, the Arctic average temperature was two to three degrees warmer than it is today, while the global average was only a degree or so warmer.

It's been warmer. In the past. Apparently.

Am I missing something?
