These days, even shipwreck museums showcase evidence of climate change.
After diving recently among Key West’s fabled ship-destroying barrier reefs, I immersed myself in exhibits from the Nuestra Senora de Atocha, the fabled Spanish galleon that foundered during a ferocious hurricane in 1622. The Mel Fisher Maritime Museum now houses many of the gold, silver, emeralds and artifacts that Mel and Deo Fisher’s archeological team recovered after finding the wreck in 1985.
Also featured prominently in the museum is the wreck of a British slave ship, the Henrietta Marie. It sank in a hurricane off Key West in 1700, after leaving 190 Africans in Jamaica, to be sold as slaves.
As Fisher divers excavated the Henrietta wreck, at 40 feet below the sea surface they found – not just leg shackles and other grim artifacts from that horrific era – but charred tree branches, pine cones and other remnants from a forest fire 8,400 years ago! The still resinous smelling fragments demonstrate that this area (like all other coastal regions worldwide) was well above sea level, before the last ice age ended and melting glaciers slowly raised oceans to their current level: 400 feet higher than during the frigid Pleistocene, when an enormous portion of Earth’s seawater was locked up in glaciers.

Climate change has clearly been “real” throughout earth and human history. The question is, exactly how and how much do today’s human activities affect local, regional or global climate and weather?

The fact that much of Arizona was under water, or the glaciers that moved down into Pennsylvania, or that the dinosaurs are gone are all proof of climate change... but I doubt that man had much influence over it.
Exactly!...they have bogus-ed the true data so bad we almost have to start over.....Scientist My A$$!....Paid hacks...just like the MSM
. but I doubt that man had much influence over it.<<
It was all caused by dinosaur farts back then...../s
LOL... just as they now claim it is cow farts...
“If it wasn’t for Al Gore and his Global Warming; we would all be dead by now.” - quote from my dad, this morning, while we were feeding the cows.

Yes.. I wish they could explain to me how the constant movement in the location of the Magnetic North Pole which is the axis of the core of the earth is changed my man. It definitely impact our weather and magnetosphere around earth!
Yeah, can someone of these assclowns ‘splain to me the inland seas here in NV and the great basin where some ickysaurous or something lived? Waiting......................... If ya really want to confuse them and leave them stuttering just drop these on them:
1. Define the “correct” temperature range for the planet.
2. Define the “correct” humidity range for the planet.
3. Define the “correct” mean sea level for the planet.
4. Define the “correct” amount of precipitation for the planet.
5. Define the “correct” makeup of the atmosphere.
6. Define the “correct” amount of sea ice at the N/S poles.
7. Define/explain past glaciation and subsequent warming without any input from humans.
Man survives by adapting to the environment, not by controlling it.
Old meme: “Everybody talks about the weather but nobody does anything about it.” Uh, because currently, we can’t. Buck Rogers in the future, maybe. Whatever happened to the idea of setting off small nukes in hurricanes anyway? LOL!
It was those damn cavemen driving their SUVs and pickup trucks to go hunting and gathering
Whatever the answer to that is, the solution is to elect more Democrats. Let them control the economy. Is it too hot? Vote Democrat. Is it too cold? Vote Democrat. Do you feel bad about the weather, or uncertain about the weather, is the surf rolling in when it should be rolling out or out when it should be in? Vote Democrat.
I thought Immanuel Velikovsky fought this battle long ago and won when he wrote “Ages in Chaos.”
That only works when the russkies aren’t in the machines changing votes from hildabeast to Trump. ;-)
We’re in dire need of both climate realism AND race realism.
Or simply a reality based culture rather than the garbage being pushed by academia that you can make up reality as it suits you. That’s called delusion.
Back then they had buffalo farts - think of the millions of buffaloes that roamed the midwest.

I Imagine it will be something like:
“Folks, we don’t know what the hell we are doing- We lied- Yes- you heard it right- We lied- There isn’t nearly enough CO2 in the atmosphere to do what we told you it was doing- We made it up because we were damned greedy- plain and simple- can you forgive us?”
-they having ignored the fact that it also indicated the extent of ice in the 1870's---
If the rock is missing, it is a Tornado!
