In a study published Monday (Dec. 10, 2018) in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, researchers show that humans are reversing a long-term cooling trend tracing back at least 50 million years. And it's taken just two centuries.Pliocene and Eocene provide best analogs for near-future climates

Our study suggests that climates like those of the Pliocene will prevail as soon as 2030 CE and persist under climate stabilization scenarios. Unmitigated scenarios of greenhouse gas emissions produce climates like those of the Eocene, which suggests that we are effectively rewinding the climate clock by approximately 50 My, reversing a multimillion year cooling trend in less than two centuries.

“We can use the past as a yardstick to understand the future, which is so different from anything we have experienced in our lifetimes,” says Williams. “People have a hard time projecting what the world will be like five or 10 years from now. This is a tool for predicting that — how we head down those paths, and using deep geologic analogs from Earth’s history to think about changes in time.”

Well it's snowing here....so much for gloBULL warning!

Your mom loves my big, thick PNAS

This requires immediate action! Quick, all the leaders of the world should burn thousands of gallons of fossil fuel as they fly their private jets to the UN so they can talk about what we should do. After much deliberation and $500 a plate dinners, they will conclude that Israel must stop shooting palestinian terrorists who are launching rockets at them, and of course, Donald Trump must be impeached. Only then can we all go back to being Rousseau's Noble Savages, living in a state of naïve sinless harmony with one another and with our goddess mother earth smiling up at us.

Scientist f%ck with the numbers to make x look much worse than actually is, they do this to get more funding. How much funding do you think the climate change scientist would get if they said there's nothing really happening here?

Sheesh! Took long enough.

re: Lolollll

This is a great tribute to human ingenuity (mostly USA of course), and hopefully in another 2 centuries we will have figured out to how put a man on the moon and reverse its cooling trend.

Most likely, the Eocene had Dinosaur Scientists warning all that their climate was going bad, and no one listened.

Because the cheeto-haired Tyrannosaurus who ran things thought he knew better.

Cool down the world, the time has come
for targets tight and fair!
Let petrol, oil and coal
prepare to go.
Let’s fund renewables,
let’s fund renewables,
let’s fund, let’s fund renewables!

Away in the future, no country or bed,
the small island nations disputed, and said,
“Those coal pumping powers concerned with their wealth
have left us to pay with our homes and our health”.
The coal is still mining, exporting at speed,
destroying prime farmland like any old weed.
I love the wind power, solar thermal. hot rocks.
You go side by side with the caulis and brocs.
And as for the coal seams, I ask of you now,
“Don’t dig up our country. will you give us that vow?”
Respect all we’re given, keep coal in the ground
and keep our world cooler, keep it spinning around.

Deck the State with solar panels. Fa la la la la la la la la.
Energy from hydro channels. Fa la la la la la la la la.
Don we now these protest banners. Fa la la la la la la la la.
Stop the mines on lands of farmers. Fa la la la la la la la la.

O come, O come renewables

and take the lead to oust old fossil fuels.

Your time has come to generate pow'r

and you won't need a single smoky tow'r.

Rejoice! rejoice! renewables will make our electricity.

Silent night, smoky night,
coal fired power, coal fired light.
Governments have failed us now.
Politicians, they don’t know how.
Still coal exports go on, still coal exports go on.
Smoky night, humming night.
Farmers quake at the sight.
Prime farm land acquired to mine.
All to earn those bigwigs a dime.
End of coal is now nigh, end of coal is now nigh.
Silent night, dusty night.
Coal is bad, coal is trite.
Black rocks causing climate change,
seas to rise and storms to rage.
Time for us to act now, time for us to act now.

We wish you a steady climate,
we wish you a steady climate,
we wish you a steady climate
and a happy new year.

Global warming, even if not a liberal myth (which it probably is), can be sorted by science. If civilization has continued in 100 years time, we will have figured out a way to control global warming by then. We will probably have terraformed Mars by then.

It's Malthusian doom all over again. Imagine if people had listened to Thomas Malthus back in the day, and kings and queens everywhere decided to limit the size of families and so on. The population probably wouldn't have been sufficient to ever kick start the Industrial Revolution etc.

And if Global Warming is real and results in the death of the planet, liberal progressives have only themselves to blame. They're the same freaks who tells us that there are 36 different genders and that people can be traumatized by an offensive Tweet, and they expect the general public to believe them when they say that the Earth is going to boil over and we're all doomed unless we become Eco activists.

I thought we'd been warming since the last ice age - like 10-11K years ago. Holocene Warming FTW!

Yep, human beings can already control the weather. The reality is here.

The climate science and meteorological communities (along with mainstream media and countless other agencies) have long since completely sold out to the power structure. Countless individuals within these groups have committed themselves to what is nothing less than a total betrayal of populations around the globe (along with the entire web of life). The ongoing global climate engineering assault could not be more obvious or indisputable to anyone that does any objective investigation and has the courage to face reality. Yet, the so called "experts" continue to fortify the public denial of climate engineering by themselves adhering to the lie on the officially dictated blatant deception.

50 Million years? Sheesh, how many Ice ages is that?

Here's a great article. U of Wash faculty Cliff Mass is an AGW believer, but he is being attacked by students and faculty as a denier because his beliefs aren't in lockstep with the climate change agenda!

Yea all those cave men had so many fires they caused the glaciers to melt and the ice age to end.

re: fisky

This is not science. Science is about encouraging questioning and discussing the data. Even if 99.99% of scientist believe X, does not make X true, or does it mean that the debate is settle. What we have today is a religion. Co2 emissions = sinning questioning =blasphemy scientist and politicians who support this doomsday climate change belief= pastors doomsday, end of the world climate change belief= Armageddon I am not denying that man made climate change is real, I just hate it when people turn science, which is based on questioning everything, gets turned into a secular religion for political reasons.

Pretty sure it was the pterodactyl farts that did them in.

re: Coevett

If you deny global warming, explain the temperatures on Venus.

Venus is 460 degrees Celsius, about 860 degrees Fahrenheit, its atmosphere mostly C02.

Earth itself would be 30 degrees colder than the average 15 C without greenhouse effects.

re: zxcvzxcv

Nice red herring. Majority of people do not deny climate change/ green house effect. The debate/question is how much is it man made/what effect do we actually have? The problem with the studies out there is that they fix the number to get there desire results and they won't include/take into account other factors.

re: red herrings everywhere

Didn’t A mile deep ice glacier over the US melt just a few thousand years ago during the 50 millionth year of cooling?
