Scientists who promote the theory of anthropogenic climate change contend a rise in the level of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere due to human activity is causing catastrophic warming.
But a new scientific study finds that the current CO2 levels of 410 parts per million were last seen on Earth 3 million years ago, points out Breitbart Editor-at-Large John Nolte.
Researchers at the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research published their findings in the journal Science Advances.
The study also found that during this time of global warming, long before the Industrial Age, “there were no ice sheets covering either Greenland or West Antarctica, and much of the East Antarctic ice sheet was gone.”
And, the researchers concluded, temperatures were up to 7 degrees Fahrenheit warmer globally and sea levels were 65 feet higher.
Nolte noted that the far-left ThinkProgress, while “sticking with the (global warming) hoax,” makes a significant concession.
“The good news is that the Earth does not warm instantly, and mile-thick ice sheets melt even more slowly,” ThinkProgress concludes. “So the temperature rise will take several decades, and tens of feet of sea level rise will take hundreds and hundreds of years.”
But ThinkProgress still insists the “choices we make now can affect the rate of rise and determine whether we blow past 65 feet of sea level rise to beyond 200 feet.”
“Even worse” ThinkProgress continues, “the climate policy agenda President Donald Trump is pushing — actions that include rolling back U.S. laws that reduce carbon pollution and abandoning the Paris climate agreement — would lock us in to such high CO2 levels, sea levels would rise a foot per decade in just a few decades.”
Nolte doesn’t buy it.

Uh, that would be “US” that’s paying. Kinda like hiring someone to kick your............. Oh, that sounds familiar.
The warming three million years ago was a natural occurrence that happened over thousands of years until the CO2 reached 400 ppm in the atmosphere. Today’s climb in CO2 to 410 ppm from just over 300 ppm has happened over 62 years and is continuing to accelerate!!!!!
So even if it stopped now the catastrophic effects that happened 3 million years ago will happen with today’s level of CO2. At the rate of the current increase, CO2 will be 500ppm in another 50 years! And 600 ppm by 2130! With no end in sight..
There is a lag effect so the warming is not instantaneous. The Earths vast oceans have absorbed much of the CO2 until now but it appears that that moderating effect will soon be gone and it will be petal to the metal for global warming from now on. Faster and faster as the new abnormals become the new normals and it will get more disastrous with each passing decade.
...or rather that the sun controls the atmosphere
Where did our oxygen come from?
...CO2 levels of 410 parts per million were last seen on Earth 3 million years ago... "there were no ice sheets covering either Greenland or West Antarctica, and much of the East Antarctic ice sheet was gone."
The glaciation of Antarctica was a sudden event, caused by the Eltanin impact. Period. This "refutation" "study" looks like more end-run BS common to the global warming hoaxters. Thanks rktman.

Seems the big worry here is not the climate, but the anthropogenic climate change believers looking out for continued funding for their “cause”. Same as it has been for some time now.
nice duck
You are obviously not schooled om this subject.
The sun controls the climates of all its planets.
But I'm "...obviously not schooled om this subject."
LOL
