This is an interesting look at climate change that looks at the Climate Shift Index, while we have heat waves and cool downs annually, climate shift is something entirely different.
Worth noting is that during the last ice age the global average temperature was only 3 degrees cooler than it currently is. In the last 100 years the earth has warmed up by 2 degrees (1 degrees Celsius) and prior to that the gradual shift has been taking place for hundreds of years, which is how we know this is manmade.
At this point it seems like the damage is done and with new records being broken daily, long before the height of the hottest summer months, it seems like we're in the middle of what we expected for our children or grand kids.

The Climate Shift Index® indicates how climate change has altered the frequency of daily temperatures in any location around the world, every day.
