Critical thinkers might look at this and say to the Climate Alarmists:
"Well, you concede then that we had an abnormal warming period centuries before man began driving cars and building industrial plants? So I am to conclude that warming or cooling on a global scale is not tied to anthropogenic CO2 emissions? Therefore, any money we spend or sacrifice to combat climate change due to man-caused CO2 emissions is a waste of money?"
The job of the Smithsonian is to obscure true knowledge rather than spread it.
I have asked for years, what is “ normal “ for the earth’s climate!
Also explain vast cooling and warming events before SUVs and coal powered plants
If the “little ice age “ ended in the 1800s wouldn’t warming be expected.
And of course what happened to the 70s coming ice age?
When your narrative is if it’s cold it’s climate change, if it’s hot it’s climate change, if there are more hurricanes it’s climate change, if there are fewer hurricanes it’s climate change, if it snows more it’s climate change, if it snows less it’s climate change, if it rains more it’s climate change and if it rains less it’s climate change, ….who can argue
Once the money started flowing and the smartest people in the workd(polititians) started coming up with solutions well…
