Solheim says that forests began to grow in this region after 9000 BC. "The climate was also quite different, and it was probably a bit warmer than it is today," he said. "We see a lot of hazel, alder, elm, and later oak, all of which are tree species that prefer warmer environments."

Never to be reported on by the "mainstream" left-wing media.

Re: “And it was probably a bit warmer than it is today.”

I recently read that around 9,700 BC ice cores from Greenland show that the average temperature increased by 18 degrees F in just 150 years!

That might explain why forests returned around that same time period to Greenland’s polar neighbor, Norway.

World population estimates for 10,000 BC are less than 1% of today’s population, so man made climate change did not even exist back then.
