Nothing is guaranteed Goat. Animals die and we get to find their fossil remains. Change is part of the cycle of life.
BTW, what lessons did we not learn from the melting glaciers that caused sea levels to rise 400 feet between 18,000 and 8,000 years ago?
Whose fault was it for this "devastating" period of "climate change"? Just think of all the poor animals (and people too) who were displaced by this
massive flooding and inundation.....It was a heck of a lot faster than anything we are experiencing now.

your argument is preposterous. like saying that people die anyway, so not worth preventing a murder.

Goat, if you have the time, Wiki up Milankovitch cycles that might explain long term temp patterns and predictions based on known orbital data.

People used to think they could change the climate by sacrificing goats, pigs, chickens, and sometimes fellow people. Humans simply have big egos, but
the climate will do what it wants. Just like earthquakes will continue to push fossils high above the seafloor. We are not as "special" as the AWG
crowd believes.
Truth generally lies in the coordination of antagonistic opinions

i know about 'em.
...but saying that climate changes for natural reasons so we should not care about our own anthropogenic changes to climate is SAME as saying that
people die due to natural causes so you should not care if i choose to kill a few people myself.
geologists dont take schist from anyone!
