is what really began to soak up carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, more so than organisms in the oceans. As a result, global temperatures dropped

I'm sorry, but I believe this is pure BS. This article, along with this "theory", exists for one purpose, and that is to continue the assertion that CO2 was and is a primary driver of the climate of this planet. Just my opinion.

The Creator is the God of the Living. It’s cool that he used lifeforms in his sculpting of our world.

...Just about all of us came back to the classroom with a better understanding of how our land features formed ...

That's great. You learned at a young age that many things can be understood by observing and thinking. That's a lesson that sticks with you your whole life. Good teacher.
