What a fascinating way of dealing with the inconvenient truth that the Earth has regularly been more warm than it presently is== without human beings to blame.

The study did not dwell on the likely causes of these bouts of warming, whether natural cycles in the earth’s climate or, most recently, to the burning of fossil fuels.
Where did I put those deck chairs...

Sadly, many of us will not survive to see the end of this century.

Three day ago I read where "Global Warming" will cause massive international warfare over depleting resources. Now it's mass extinctions, leaving the Earth fit only for cockroaches. Soon, it will be the collapse of the galaxy into a Black Hole the size of a pencil eraser.
This is all nice, but we really need more hysteria. Then, whallah! The solution! Agree to a 500% tax increase, payable to the UN, and all will be solved.

Well, since it was only 66 years from Kitty Hawk to the moon, it may not be that far.

..or we could move to other planets or solar systems. that’s quite a ways down the road tho.. At least three other planets have been found to be undergoing recent global warming!

“Each of five major eras of declining biodiversity — including one in which 95 percent of the Earth’s species disappeared — correspond to cycles of severe warming over the 520-million-year period for which there are fossil records.”
What were they driving back then?

a more or less severe culling of life on Earth.
On the good side, libs will die out first.

There were very few carbon dioxide generators back then but the earth still warmed. Therefore, GW has nothing to do with man.
Doesn’t that seem so incredibly obvious to a logical human being?
