Was it part of Pangaea 65 million years ago?

“ the tail end of the age of dinosaurs”

Clearly global warming from dinosaur farts

[Secret Agent Man]

Not new. I saw pics of palm trees under the ice decades ago.

but Earth is a dynamic planet that is constantly changing

That just simply can't be true, the globull warmunists assure us that the earth has been in a steady state until man discovered fossil fuels and began the industrial revolution. We're knocking it off its delicate knife edged balance and we'll soon be facing oblivion. Just ask them.

Antarctica has that rainforest 90 million years ago, but then, the dinosaurs started driving their big gas-guzzling SUVs, and all went kaput when the climate went to hell. They changed Earth’s climate permanently.

[metmom]

The Earth was much warmer due to increased carbon dioxide levels (sea-surface temperatures in the tropics were at an incredible 95 degrees Fahrenheit, for example), and the world’s oceans were a staggering 558 feet higher than they are today. Estimates suggest that Cretaceous Antarctica had a climate similar to today’s Italian peninsula and was filled with plant and animal life, including dinosaurs.

I'd like to see the data that supports those claims.

I don’t believe the timeline, but pinkos and other climate hysterics will tell you, “Yeah, but it’s changing faster now!” Like they know.

[californian by choice]

I think I understand that Antarctica 90,000 years ago was closer to the equator than to the poles.

The big lizards caused it!

Make Antartia Green Again!!!

[Claud]

Yep. I wrote a very short story about it:

12 thousand years ago North America was under an ice sheet. Climate change is real, it has been changing since time began. If it aint getting warmer, it is getting colder.

We aint the reason for climate change, nature is.

[butlerweave]

Yep climate change takes millions of years ,LOL

[Deplorable American1776]

Antarctica had a rainforest 90 million years ago

Liberals: We have to blame this on evil Trump supporters. Let's raise taxes to see how we can blame them!! 🤓

[beethovenfan]

Climate change is natural. Deal with it.

I did a science fair project some 50 years ago or so. My mom helped me bake clay continents in the oven for the project. Continental drift was barely a thing back then. Thanks Mom..
