Well the theory of Pangea breaking up would have had the (now) Arctic in a tropical climate somewhere in the past.

Well was man using fossil fuels then? How could the earth have been so warm without man's interference?

Arctic once was tropical

Back when orcas and orangutans walked side-by-side.

Perhaps massive releases of methane from the ocean...

Admittedly, I have, on occasion, been responsible for "massive releases of methane", but there is absolutely NO evidence that I was the source of this one...

Continental Drift not withstanding.

55 million years ago, North America was somewhat farther South than today. I believe these climatologists are trying to deliberately mislead people now.

Pity this is very interesting, but they have framed it like another scare story.

First-of-its-kind core samples dug up from deep beneath the Arctic Ocean floor show that 55 million years ago an area near the North Pole was practically a subtropical paradise, three new studies show.

Paradise? Paradise? Al Gore told me that it wasn't a subtropical paradise. It was a festering hot hellhole.

I was going to ask where the current artic area was that long ago, but it looks like it hasn't moved much since then.

65 million years ago.

I heard it was also a hot vacation spot for affluent, gay dinosaurs.

But that's just a rumor...

The Arctic was a happy, sunny place before President Bush! There were rainbows and bunnies and chocolate rivers!

Skeptics of man-made causes of global warming have nothing to rejoice over, however. The researchers say their studies appearing in Thursday's issue of Nature also offer a peek at just how bad conditions can get.

No agenda in that "news" article, huh... Just the facts. Uh, right.

Give the Arctic a break. Global Cooling was the theory and the rage back in the seventies. Now that it's Global Warming, the Arctic is doing it's best to get hip by melting its icecaps, etc. But it takes time. You can't expect the Arctic to turn on a dime whenever a new trend comes along.
