    Some would call that post narcissist, so where is this test planet at that is perfect to earth but no humans exist?

    Earth was warming up before the damn ICE

    We are still leaving a ice age

    So what caused the warming then and are those factors still causing warming now?

    Without the effects of warming gasses the earth should be cooling

    Well we can assume man didn't cause them in the past, and we can assume man does not have much of an impact today, to many variables. Thats the problem.

    Have any evidence of this? 120 years of data in statistically not logical of a planet that's 4.5 billion years old

    Why do you answer a question with a question?

    Isn't this fun. Just proving Bowerbird's point.

    Of course they are. We are currently in what is called the modern warming period, which will end just like all the previous warming periods like the Medieval and Roman warming periods which were warmer. In fact it has been cooling since the end of the Holocene optimum 8,000 years ago.

    So you think we didn't know about the Milankovitch cycles ? That's just as ignorant as a poster posting a thread no red necks knew about thermodynamics on here

    Ignorant and just plain retarded

    The references have been posted. Why don’t you answer your own question which is ‘what was the minimum atmospheric CO2 concentration in the last ice age’.

    What is ignorant and retarded is posting in this thread. And there is no cause for insults.

    What? You have been posting I am ignorant..


    Quit the spin us red necks know about thermodynamics and Milankovitch cycles.



    Quit the spin we are highly educated on reading and the streets, dont light my fire

    It has been warming rapidly since 1970 and it is warmer now than it was during the Holocene optimum 8000 years ago. See the graph on post #52 which shows the reconstructed temperature of the Holocene.
    That graph ends at the year 2000 and it has warmed at least 0.3 degrees C since the year 2000 or about 0.5 degrees C. above the Holocene optimum. This warming period is not like the Medieval or Roman
    warming periods. Those warming periods did not exhibit the kind of rapid, globally synchronized warming that we are seeing today. Those warming periods were more regional than global. There is a cooling trend of 0.1 degree Celsius per 1000 years that is caused by the Milankovitch cycles that would be gradually cooling the earth in the present time if humans weren't on the planet burning fossil fuels.

    The GISP2 ice cores says you are wrong.
