A conference organised by the Geological Society in London this week will bring together scientists from around the world to look at how the world coped with climate change in the past.
By studying rock sediments from millions of years ago geologists have been able to model how increases in greenhouse gases led to temperature change and extinction of species.

It must have been all the pre-historic cars that provided the previous greenhouse examples for baseline. That stupid T-Rex always parading around in his SUV.

Since this happened before and they didn’t have SUV’s and coal plants, you have to explain how we’re causing it now....and you simply can’t.

Blackbody radiation prohibits this. This is defying physics. The apple falls up on Newton's head. It cannot happen.

100,000 years? It’s too late. Leave us alone. What makes you think it’s gonna take 100K years to recoup, but somehow, if we listen to you and act immediately, we can stop it? Get over yourselves, you corrupt lying bastards.

The earth will be around longer than human beings. It will survive until it is burned up by the sun.

Well, that’s it then. If nothing we do makes any difference, mankind may as well enjoy its last few thousand millenia on Earth and not worry about global warming.

Ah, you're forgetting Rove's famous SUV time machine, aren't you?..:=) Everyone knows about Rove's SUV time machine and how he uses it to ruin the planet in the past, present, and future. Rove is so EEEEEEEEVIL! ;-)
