>>11325404>how do you know the earth wasn't this warm a million years ago?So what if it was? It's the rate of warming that's the problem, not the temperature.
>we don't have any data going back event remotely that farIncorrect.
>a better one would be: a tree naturally grows up, let's make one that grows sidewaysThis is easy to do since trees grow in whatever direction the light source is. You are falsely conflating current warming being natural (even though it isn't) with manmade warming being impossible.
>what about compared to 10,000 years ago? 100,000? 1,000,000?Over the past million years, the fastest warming has taken thousands of years rather than a few hundred.
>You're comparing temperature data on a scale of hundreds of years when the earth is billions of years oldHumans care about the next hundred years regardless of whether it's noticeable across Earth's entire history. Human existence is barely a blip in Earth's history. Are you a human or a rock?
>if the earth does indeed have natural cooling/heating patterns how would you change that on a global scale? Are these patterns magic? They have causes that can be exploited. Regardless, we know client warming isn't part of a cycle because we already know the cause is not natural. And we can see it is completely against the natural cycle that has determined temperature over the last million years.
>wouldn't it be a bad idea to interfere with that?Natural doesn't mean good.
None of your arguments are original, you've picked them up from some entry level denier blogs. You have a long way to go.
