Why are there fossils of palm trees (from centuries before the Industrial Revolution) found in cold regions???The fossils of palm trees are not from "centuries" before the Industrial Revolution; they are from millions of years before the Industrial Revolution. Earth has had much warmer, and much colder, periods than present, if you want to examine the geological record. But you can't compare then to now, because for one thing, the continents weren't even in the same place.

Ever hear of continental drift? Look up (google) Pangea for some basics. Remember - fossils are old, not from last year.
