It’s not quite the dunk these climate cultists think it is
Scientists have captured Earth’s climate over the last 485 million years. Here’s the surprising place we stand now.
An effort to understand Earth’s past climates uncovered a history of wild temperature shifts and offered a warning on the consequences of human-caused warming.An ambitious effort to understand the Earth’s climate over the past 485 million years has revealed a history of wild shifts and far hotter temperatures than scientists previously realized — offering a reminder of how much change the planet has already endured and a warning about the unprecedented rate of warming caused by humans.
The timeline, published Thursday in the journal Science, is the most rigorous reconstruction of Earth’s past temperatures ever produced, the authors say. Created by combining more than 150,000 pieces of fossil evidence with state-of-the-art climate models, it shows the intimate link between carbon dioxide and global temperatures and reveals that the world was in a much warmer state for most of the history of complex animal life.
The revelations about Earth’s scorching past are further reason for concern about modern climate change, said Emily Judd, a researcher at University of Arizona and the Smithsonian specializing in ancient climates and the lead author of the study. The timeline illustrates how swift and dramatic temperature shifts were associated with many of the world’s worst moments — including a mass extinction that wiped out roughly 90 percent of all species and the asteroid strike that killed the dinosaurs.
You know how I feel about “climate models”. There is very little actual data from direct observation involved in this, but, anyhow, what does it look like?

So, pretty much the entirety of that 485 million years it has been much hotter than now? Weird. What made it so warm, and why should we have concern and this be a “warning about the consequences of human-caused warming?” A much warmer/hotter climate seems the norm.
But, I’m not sure I buy it. Most reconstructions look like this
But, hey, if Warmists want to run with the new one, it rather blows up their cult beliefs.
We stand corrected!!! Humans and human civilizations have survived for 485 million years when the Earth was always much, much warmer than now!
Ancient New Yorkers or Miamians or Los Angelenos from a few hundred million years ago did not write about the oceans engulfing their cities!! This proves that even is the great ice sheets of Greenland and Antarctica melt the seas will not rise as much as is now proclaimed!
What the “scientists” (as Mr Teach refers to them) should explain is why God put all these false fossils and other signs in the Earth to test the faiths of these “scientists”. The Bible dates the Earth at no more than 6,000 to 10,000 years old.
Humans of Earth relax. What the “study” tells us is that humans, algae, fish, fowl, ants, snakes, spiders and beef cattle will survive this current “warmist” trend, even if the Earth warms to an average of 90F!!
Drill baby drill. Burn baby burn. Stupid “scientists”
