Two things...
1. Out Mayor here accuses people like me who disagree with him of having Eccentric Orbital Rhythms all the time.
2. "Eccentric Orbital Rhythms" makes a really catchy name for a rock band...
An inconvenient truth.
Once again CO2 responds to earth cycles and not the other way around.
How inconvenient for Algore.
Except this sediment doesn't settle in nice neat, undisturbed layers. Ocean currents pile them up is some places, sweep them away in others, not to mention earth quakes and other catastrophic events that have happened over the centuries. There are huge deposits of methane ice off the coast of near every continent containing so much energy that it dwarfs that of all the worlds oil deposits. This stuff releases methane and co2 constantly, but for some reason it's never taken into account, nor is it's potential for alternative energy.
The pacific floor is dished in, and the mid atlantic ridge pushes the sea floor up; it slopes from the coastlines down to a point that's deepest between the mid atlantic ridge and the coastlines. Wanna bet that sediment drifts slowly towards the deepest parts of these formations? Using core samples of this stuff as measurements of the earths age is just plain silly.
There is no way to predict how much is slides towards these centers a year or how many events have effected it, the rate at which this sediment is produced, that it was always constant, etc etc. What about so called continental drift?
Surely that moved it around a lot in 42 million years. Not to mention that we'd all be dead or very stoned from breathing all that methane gas released from the Methane Hydrate ice formations. There is no way that this stuff can be used to determine what the weather was at any point in history because of these underterminable variables.
Heiko Pälike had better head back to the guessing board if he wants to get more grant money. Surely he could have come up with something more believable than this. It can't be that hard.
Further complicating things, Gore's rhythm is Koom Bah Yah.
T'weren't the SUVs then, but the Orbital Cycles.
I wonder what kind of mileage you get with them Orbital Cycles. I'd like to visit Mars and stuff.
Let's have the truth. No more political agendas. If the media would just report the facts I would make up my mind without their help. When they "report" in such as way as to try to convince me of something, I don't believe them.
Also, doesn't the axis of the Earth tilt from somewhere between 20 degrees and 25 degrees or so? At maximum tilt, 25 degrees, the climate is more temperate. At minimum tilt, or about 20, the climate cools down dramatically.
Interesting that we are about midrange now at 23, and headed downward.
ALL THE MODELS I have seen about climate shows we are due for a mini if not maxi ice age.

"that energy budget"
So, global climate needs a credit card now? Stupid garbage.
Keppler's Fault.

Heiko Pälike, a geologist at the National Oceanography Center in Southampton, England... and his colleagues went considerably further than that, pulling a sediment core from the depths of the Pacific that stretched back 42 million years. Limiting their analysis to the Oligocene -- a glacial time period that lasted between roughly 34 million and 23 million years ago--the researchers found that global climate responds to slight changes in the amount of sunlight hitting Earth during shifts in its orbit between elliptical and circular.
