[quote]There have been at least five documented major ice ages during the 4.6 billion years since the Earth was formed — and most likely many more before humans came on the scene about 2.3 million years ago./quote]

I don't get it, what caused the planet to warm all those times? There were no coal plants, no cars, no airplanes but yet the planet warmed each time. What the hell caused all those climate changes?

Under the vast bulk of Al Gore's belly, there must be surprising warmth.

Clowntoker last caught a glimpse of his toes, looking past his bulging abdomen, in 1954.

False equivalences. A necessary component of the conservative "mind." lol

Exposure to the sun can cause skin cancer. Ergo, the sun is bad. :lol:

False equivalences

Right, past climate changes don't matter. :lol:

[elklindo69]

According to the conservatard deniers the temperature readings, satellite imagery, CO2 readings, etc were all falsified!

:lol:

"Right, past climate changes don't matter."-RealTool

No, they DON'T matter. Past climate changes won't change your life one iota.

But if you mean past gradual climate changes should be compared to the current unprecedented rapid climate change, then yes, they demonstrate that this rapid change is unlike anything that has occurred in the past.

That's pretty insightful of you, Tool.

But if you mean past gradual climate changes should be compared to the current unprecedented rapid climate change, then yes, they demonstrate that this rapid change is unlike anything that has occurred in the past.

So tell us ole wise man how you know the pace of current climate change is unlike any in the past?

[Grog]

Because we're watching it happen in real time.

It's not that complicated. Well, to some it obviously is. :lol:

Because you compare current to historical data. It's not that difficult to understand.


:lol:

[RealJustme]

Because we're watching it happen in real time.

So because you weren't around to see prior Ice Ages and climate changes they didn't happen?

[Grog]

Obviously they did. But now we can watch them as they happen and deduce all kinds of information.

You're really not playing on this one, are you?

[RealJustme]

Because you compare current to historical data. It's not that difficult to understand.

Dude, there is no historical data to compare to current data. Tell us, how hot was it just 500 million years ago. I'll make it easier, how hot was it just 500 years ago. I'll allow you to even use climate proxies to try and "guess".

[RealJustme]

Obviously they did. But now we can watch them as they happen and deduce all kinds of information.

So just because we can now monitor changes and couldn't before, man is causing the changes?

[Grog]

Yeah, because you can watch and measure it as it's happening.

Wow. You're genuinely not horsing around.

Apparently I've been giving you a lot more credit than I should have.

[RealJustme]

Yeah, because you can watch and measure it as it's happening.

So climate change didn't happen when we weren't around to watch and measure it happening?

[Grog]

Wow.

[RealJustme]

Yep, WOW.

Libtards don't consider history. Climate has actually changed before man, an inconvenient truth.
