Oil!
Let’s dig some up and see how it burns. BRING BACK PANGEA NOW!
The forest wasn’t where it is now in space
“The mid-Cretaceous period was one of the warmest periods in Earth’s history. The atmosphere was flooded with CO2 and sea levels were more than 500 feet higher than they are today. Sea surface temperatures in the tropics were as high as 95 degrees Fahrenheit.”
“The polar forest was made possible by climate change.” Have the dug up the ancient SUVs that were responsible yet?
How was this possible without SUV's?
Made possible by climate change? From the UPI. I thought they were dead.
It’s time some comedian turned Climate Change into a cartoon character. I can’t wait to see what else Climate Change may be responsible for.
errr….ummm….it's GLOBAL WARMING!!!!
No...ahhh, it's CLIMATE CHANGE!!!!
How dare the earth's climate, our environment change!?!?
We demand the government make the climate static!
Let me know when they find one of these.
A lot can happen in 90 million years.
CLIMATE CHANGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
“The polar forest was made possible by climate change.”
Too many cars, even way back then./sarc
It doesn’t look a day over 1 million years old.
A very misleading statement, but what you might expect from journalists as evidenced by their understanding of virus pandemics. Both Antarctica and Australia had a portion of their continents within the Antarctic Circle, but the South Pole was free of any land mass. This meant that ocean currents were very different and there was no southern ice cap. Perhaps sea ice in the southern winter that likely melted in the summer. The Earth was much warmer during this period and the evidence for forests in Antarctica has been well known for some time. Both Antartica and Australia had forests, dinosaurs, and many other flora and fauna just like land masses in the Northern Hemisphere. Things that aren't studied in Journalism School.
The HAB Theory
“every 6,000–7,000 years the Earth’s polar ice caps become over-burdened with ice, creating such an imbalance in the planet’s center of gravity, that the Earth’s poles and the Earth’s equator shift positions. The former poles are soon located somewhere between the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn, where the weight of the polar ice cap leaves a large circular depression and other dramatic geological changes occur as the huge quantity of water is released by the ice caps melting.”

In the beginning there were waters above and waters below.
Sodium laced water at orbital temperature is a super conductor and would levitate on the planetary magnetic field.
Until a magnetic polar reversal event.
A water shield would make a near perfect radiation shield.
Radio carbon dating assumes there was no such shield in place. Which is why RCD is wildly and randomly inaccurate when dating things over 6000 years ago.
And why things found in SEDIMENTARY deposits always date millions of years old.
In order for there to have been forests world wide, all tropical the earth would have had to have been encased in a giant greenhouse. If the sky was clear as it is currently, thermal radiation leakage insures wildly divergent temperature extremes creating icy polar regions.
