The unchecked use of fossil fuels will produce a climate not seen since the Triassic period about 200 million years ago, researchers warn in a new report.
The culprit for this unprecedented warming is atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2), suggest researchers led by the University of Southampton in the UK, which by the year 2250 could reach levels equivalent to those of the “age of reptiles,” when dinosaurs roamed the earth.
In their research, the researchers admit that CO2 levels are “much lower now” than they have been at other, hotter points in the earth’s history, yet they warn that levels are rising rapidly.
During hotter periods in the planet’s history, the concentration of CO2 has climbed as high as 3,000 parts per million (ppm), whereas in 2016, the concentration was only 400 ppm.

Climate change prediction success: 0%
Scott Adams (Dilbert) had a profound point a few weeks ago:’I might be persuaded about Global Warming danger if someone could show me that there was any evidence of damage from the warming we’ve had so far.’ Not 50 or 100 years from now. Where’s the destruction now, the lost lives?
I wonder what the consensus of scientists would be if there were no research grants.
See this was manbearpig’s mistake.
Fake Science Rule number 4:
If you are going to make a phony doomsday prediction to advance your kook climate change theory make certain to set your doomsday at least 100 years in the future. This way you can spend your whole worthless existence trying to grab money and power before your prediction fails. You also spare yourself ridicule because you will be long dead and gone and no one will remember your sorry ass.
How big do you suppose the drumsticks are on one of those critters? Or the spare ribs? And just think of the omelettes to be had! I really don’t see a downside here...
I’ve always wondered what dinosaur steaks taste like.
Hey will this triassic thingy happen before or after the ice age. Also when are we all going to be underwater again. I’d like to plan
Liberal true believers are such a yawn...
No amount of expensive programs to lessen the impact of over population and our planet will have any effect as long as overpopulation is allowed to go unchecked.
Great! I want some of those giant ferns in my yard ...
They live off Grant Money. They can come up with anything they want....OR TOLD TO COME UP WITH.
Dihydrogen monoxide vapor in he atmosphere is a far more abundant and potent greenhouse gas than CO2. Dihydrogen monoxide in its liquid form also kills thousands every year. We must immediately ban dihydrogen monoxide.
I think these “CO2 is bad” studies are their subtle way of suggesting we off ourselves. You know, for the good of erf
Great! Dinosaurs will be back. Then when the dinosaurs die our oil supply will be replenished!
Does anybody know of a school teaching how to saddle and ride a dinosaur?
Here’s a suggestion. Why don’t we just plant more trees, plants, flowers, gardens? So simple, so cost effective. Something that everyone can do and take pleasure in. Why don’t these deranged idiots do the obvious?
Complaining failed, so now the left is reduced to hysterical shrieking.
