However, pCO2 records derived from stomata densities of terrestrial plant leaf remains suggest that pCO2 during the Eocene was not substantially higher than modern concentrations. In either case, it would appear that changes in post-middle Eocene climates were driven by factors other than pCO2, such as changes in continental elevations, oceanic circulation, and possibly sea level.
How about it got cooler during another glacial era?
My results indicate that following the expansion of ice on East Antarctica (ca. 14.5-12 Ma), pCO2 steadily increased until about 9 Ma and stabilized at pre-industrial values (ca. 290 ppmv; generally below the threshold level required by the pCO2-C4 hypothesis).pCO2 remained relatively constant throughout the late Miocene and therefore provide no evidence that changes in pCO2 forced ecological change during this time.
Hat tip to cogitator.
AND... all those who work for any corporation who has accepted TARP money!
On the other hand, God can make things happen rather quickly when He wants to.
Ice core date has shown that CO2 goes up AFTER global temperature rises, with a time lag of hundreds of years. The lag is long enough to disprove alGore’s modern CO2 paranoia. However I bet it is too short to be recognized in proxies from 35M years ago. How can these guys say the CO2 fell first back then, instead of falling after the cold wave? If all the evidence they cite is their computer models, than this just gives us another reason to laugh at them. GIGO.

Some noteworthy articles about politics, foreign or military affairs, IMHO, FReepmail me if you want on or off my list.
Here’s all you need to know:
“To find the result, Huber used modern climate modeling tools to look at the prehistoric climate.”
Models, Poof in, Poof out.

Let’s hope the next Ice Age begins at Algore’s estate in TN and freezes that liar to the floor.
There is PROBABLY oil in Antartica! WHY can’t we drill there? Or at LEAST do preliminary seismic-shooting.
Thanks for the ping!
According to Huber, “We found that the likely culprit was a major drop in greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, especially CO2.”
Climate models have never been validated because it is impossible to do so. Many people believe that they have been made particularly sensitive to CO2 because that is what the modelers want to see.
It is absurd to claim that a model that is not and cannot be validated that gives us a conveniently politically correct answer, has any credibility.
Now, if the result were the opposite, in the face of intense political pressure, that might be interesting.
The false belief in the computer models has become so bad that when the model results do not agree with the experimental data (as in the upper-troposphere cooling trend), they claim the data is wrong!
