The 2nd link from the BBC confirms the existence of geothermal warming having an impact on ice sheets.
Canada and a section of Northern US(including New York) were once covered by Ice. How else did nearly all of that disappear, if not by "global warming"?

In New York, the ice that covered Manhattan was about 2,000 feet high before it began to melt in about 16,000 BC. The ice in the area disappeared around 10,000 BC. The ground in the New York area has since risen by more than 150 ft because of the removal of the enormous weight of the melted ice.[10]

On average that's 4 inches of ice loss each and every year.
