Note: make sure that La Niña doesn't prove "global cooling", as well as vice versa i.e. El Niño doesn't prove "global warming". It's under research, according to NOAA

What
is the relationship between El Niño/La Niña and global warming?

The jury is still out on this. Are we likely to see more El Niños
because of global warming? Will they be more intense? These are the main
research questions facing the science community today. Research will help
us separate the natural climate variability from any trends due to man's
activities. We cannot figure out the "fingerprint" of global warming if
we cannot sort out what the natural variability does. We also need to
look at the link between decadal changes in natural variability and global
warming. At this ti...

Thanks for noticing me, but haven't you realised I'd already clipped it? What is La Niña? And what is the relation with global warming?

As you can see, Luixxiul, modern science has no idea what to do with this constituent (one of numerous) of the climate

Which do you mean? 1) to prove the connexion is impossible from the start, or 2) the science hasn't reached whether it's possible or impossible. But if no1 went, there were no reason why the scientists are studying on them.
