The answer is 'cooler'. The Cretaceous Period was relatively warm and was experiencing global warming. However, a cooling trend was evident towards the end of the Cretaceous. The Paleocene followed the meteorite impact that resulted in the extinction of most of the dinosaurs. It is thought that dust particles in the atmosphere resulted in cooling during the early Paleocene.
