Instead the Earth is now warming at a rate which is almost without precedent in the geological record. And, insofar as there is precedent, it is not good precedent.

So all this nonsense about “cycles and variations” or “ebb and flow” can be dispensed with, because it just ain’t so.

Is the big deal Greg ? Grapes were grown in Greenland 7000BCE there are cycles and we progress through the Holocene interglacial these things are all part of a cycles with variations

There is an ebb and flow to everything. The past reminds us of the consequences, which we cannot change. Neandertals and Denisovan Hominids existed side by side. Denisovan who?
Deglaciation in the altai mountains almost wiped them out completely. They weren’t intelligent enough to relocate.
