Have you ever read "Catastrophe"? You might find it interesting.

The liberals Europeans, and Americans would like to call it "Climate Change"! This way if the scientists said that the earth is cooling, it is because human activities. If another group of scientists said the earth is warming, it is because of the human activities! One way or another, they will regulate something, it does not matter, what it is!

The Global Warming crowd have been attempting to elliminate the "Medieval Optimum" by selective dendrochronology and ice cores... and ignoring the "anecdotal" reports of Wine Grapes growing in Northern climes... and Greenland actually being GREEN. Strangely, when you look at the graphs they came up with that eliminate the "medieval optimum" they also had to eliminate the "little ice age" the extended to the 17th Century...

Certain ancients believed that the sun was a chariot that was pulled across the sky. In the future, people will look back out the "greenhouse effect" and
global warming" in the same way we see ancient beliefs...

We do not understand everything about Mother Earth

The one thing that should be obvious is that the Earth got here before us, and doesn't seem to care about human creature comforts. And it's bigger and meaner than we are...

Well, of course, there was global warming then.

That period was known as the Dark Ages, so people all over Europe lit candles so they could see. All those candles heated the planet. And, with all those candles glowing, Europe came out of the Dark Ages and entered into the Age of Enlightenment.

They used to make wine in Britain - that ought to tell us something.

Apropos of nothing in particular, but it's the truth - in the 13th century there was only one Plague reservoir - Central Asia, where the rats and the fleas had come to a stasis that remains today. Today we have two Plague reservoirs. The second one was created in the 19th century - it's the Southwestern United States.

Sleep tight, kiddies...

Very well written. A little more editing and you could have it published.

He ordered the few surviving troops to lad up the rotting bodies of the soldiers who died of some horrible pestilence, they rigged these dead bodies onto the catapults, and shot them over the walls of fortified Caffa and into the Christian citadel. Rotting bodies of the dead Muslims fell into the streets of Caffa, and lay all over the town.

Does this mean that Muslims invented biological warfare? Or were there earlier instances.

[walford]

Actually global climate change are as old as this planet.

[GoLightly]

Excellent!

Now the closed society of Mecca and Medina, and little "kingdoms" surrounding, are dying from AIDS, a fitting disease for what some old "scriptures" the Sunni muslims have which call the Wahabbi Muslims from the Arab lands "those who are addicted to the anus".

It also seems the gene which causes fanatics was never completely wiped out by any plague thus far.
It's also interesting to note that "Greenland" at one time lived up to it's name, and other records point to the sea ice in the Hudson Strait having been absent, allowing the passage of Vikings in early times to establish colonies in Canada's north, into central Canada via the Nelson river, as artifacts prove to be pre-dating the Indian.

Interesting essay. Thanks for sharing.

Change is the only global constant.

"Global Warming" is a hoax.

Global warming: what it boils down to is world government.

[Mike Darancette]

After 1200 AD, and especially from 1300 AD to 1350 AD, things become wetter, and then colder.

During the Global Warming period of the 1200’s,

What???

Earth's climate changes are due largely to "Space Weather" and cyclical factors which are natural. The sun also emits geomagnetic storms which influence natural cycles of weather on our planet. To think that man has much of an impact of the weather is an example of human hubris raised to the level of absurdity.
