According to those graphs, we're still on the upward portion of the curve. Is there any clue what makes the curve change direction? Also, where do they predict we are on the curve?

You're looking at the wrong fucking side of the graphs, dude. Those are labeled by age in kiloyears, from now, on the LEFT SIDE to a million years ago on the right side.

It's showing that we're on the down-swing, when our temperature is going UP significantly over the last 150 years (almost all of it in the last 30 years).

The scale is too large to see that effect over that period of time.

The Earth should be heading for a cooler-than-normal swing. It's going the other way.
