The Medieval Warm Period was a time of warm climate in the North Atlantic region that may have been related to other warming events in other regions during that time, including China and other areas, lasting from c. 950 to c. 1250. Averaged global mean temperatures have been calculated to be similar to early-mid 20th century warming. Possible causes of the Medieval Warm Period include increased solar activity, decreased volcanic activity, and changes to ocean circulation. The period was followed by a cooler period in the North Atlantic and elsewhere termed the Little Ice Age. Maybe the Vikings had SUV's we don't know about. And the human race was not wiped out! Climate change is a natural occurrence, and the junk science that claims it is man-made is supported by tax dollars which go to the scientists who toe the party line.

There’s a reason Greenland got it’s name. During a relatively warm era, ancient Vikings were actually able to grow crops on a large portion of that Arctic
