Heat is absorbed by the ocean near the equator. That heat is naturally dissipated in a couple of ways. First and slowest is through ocean currents which move toward the poles. (ie gulf stream). The faster way is through the atmosphere. Cyclonically towards the poles as well. Tropical cyclones being more drastic coolers.
I believe the earth can take care of any excess heat (produced by human activity, if any) easily.
If it wasn't doing that I expect to see more tropical cyclones and of greater strength, which we are not.
The AGW alarmists were predicting cat 6 (200 mph) storms years ago. Doesn't seem to be happening.
Doesn't mean it won't happen in the future either.That DOESN'T mean we shouldn't be good stewards of the planet anyway.

Overpopulation leading to overconsumption remains the problem.
