Siliggy, if more CO2 means more cooling does that mean that well see a change of story from our warmists? You know, CAGC (catastrophic anthropogenic global cooling) and see policies to reduce CO2 to avoid freezing?

Im going to nit-pick and point out that 3.5 billion years is extraordinarily old for oceanic crust. Wikipedia says typically 200 million years OK, I know its not always a reliable source but Ive read the same number in various books. Oceanic crust is continuously recycled by subduction in the course of tectonic plate activity so its on average way younger than continental crust. If this bit of oceanic basalt was so old, its not typical of most oceanic basalt. Does the study extrapolate from this to most or all the ocean crust and if, so how do they justify it?
Before anyone gets the wrong idea, no Im not a warmist troll. Just taking a sceptical look at the information given.
