Buffalo numbers were probably way too high. Lotsa methane.

Notice how they use hard science, genome sequence of specific species, to proselytize their quasi-religious doomsday cult pseudoscience.

"Of course, the past collapse was due to a natural cycle in Earth's climate. It was not caused by rapid global warming, triggered by human fossil fuel emissions during what should be a planetary cold spell, as it is today."

Of course. Naturally. What other reason could there be?

Yet, the article says "around 125,000 years ago, the massive 530,000 cubic mile West Antarctic ice sheet...had fully collapsed into the sea."

We all know the REAL reason for that warming 125,000 years ago...

They’re either ignorant, lying, or both. The ice shelves are already floating on water or, if resting on bedrock, displace a lot of water. So if they melt there is zero or only a small increase in sea level. If the ice sheets currently on land collapse as well, that’s a completely different scenario.

Only an ignorant idiot would be convinced by this “science” article.

There were glaciers. Some of them went away. Some animals were separated from other animals. Some survived. Some didn’t.

Once upon a time in a country long ago, there were science journals. They actually practiced science and didn’t write wild ranting suppositions for a gullible public.

In other words, life on earth was not destroyed by the collapse of an ice sheet back then, and even the octopus species in the area survived just fine.

so the ice sheet broke off... it didn’t melt... there is a scientific reason for that to happen... the ice grows and becomes too heavy...

if the ice melts, it recedes and doesn’t break off.

so the ice was growing and the octapusses were frollicking and then the ice broke of and separated the two and i guess they never became friends.

Oh brother. Guess the author and all those issuing this warning missed middle school science class where they talked at length about how the earth has warmed and cooled over the eons.

Gotta keep the narrative going. If it’s not a crisis how can they transfer $trillions for those that earn it to themselves?
Unfortunately for the crisis mongers, if one does just a bit of historical research regarding ice ages in the past it shoots down most of what they are pushing as crisis data.
