It was those pesky old Model T-Rex Fords....
Equally, man made CO2 may have absolutely nothing to
do with climate change, and in fact abandoning the use of
so called fossil fuels may make surviving any coming
climate differences impossible.
“many thousands of years”
That’s a lot longer than 12 years, but the world didn’t, like, end and stuff.
It can start warming up any day now...
well if it comes from a student indoctrinated in the Global Warming BS, then we must believe him! Wonder if it was due to a Ted Nugent feedback that is causing this current global warming hitting is now. The Stranglehold Midwest Freeze of Global warming.
An analogue, I think not. The entire premise of today's climate change is that the climate is being changed by the actions of humans. Without evil humans, the climate would be benign and whoever might inherit the Earth will enjoy a never ending paradise. But the climate change of the PETM could not have been caused by humans, it was a completely nature event. They have been trapped by their ever desperate illogical dogma.
No doubt studying under Professor "hockey stick" Mann.
Climatologist predictions of the number of hurricanes and major hurricanes in the North Atlantic have been plus or minus 20% or more on average each year.
But take a look at the 2013 North American hurricane predictions.
The NOAA scientists predicted 3 to 6 major hurricanes. Actual number was 0 (zero!).
They also predicted 7 to 11 regular hurricanes, and there were only 2.
These are the people who are telling us the Earth will be warmer by one degree 100 years from now.
Meanwhile they were dead wrong at predicting basic stuff 6 months in advance. They don't have a clue!
Obviously we are in the midst of the after math of a change in climate, not anthropogenic climate change
You can STOP reading now.

The PETM isn’t a good analogue if you consider CO2 it was four times higher than now. Read Not by Fire but by Ice by Robert Felix
Scientists? Ancient climate change ?
Another JOKE of an article on Climate Change
. a.k.a.... the 4 Seasons.
So this genius is saying there may be a positive feedback mechanism built into the climate that in the past as acted to warm the planet and we may be just on the edge of triggering such an event, although the event may happen anyway.
There also is a feedback effect where Professors want dollars. They get dollars from government. Government supplies dollars if the professors instill fear in the populace. Populace supplies dollars to government to protect them from fears.
It was those dinosaur farts. They think cows are bad, 3 or 4 T-Rex’s were like a whole herd of thousands of cows.
-60 degrees below zero for the wind chill in Minneapolis.
I lived maybe 10 miles from downtown. My sister lives there. It was in the low 70’s here in southern California. I let my sister know how warm it was here.... : )
