The climate changes and it's fucking natural. https://xkcd.com/1732/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geologic_temperature_record#/media/File:All_palaeotemps.svg Here's a more appropriate and non-cherry-picked representation of the fluctuation of temperatures throughout the Earths history. Take particular note of the Eemian period where temperatures fluctuated at a much greater rate and in ratios that are consistent with current trends. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eemian The sample size and time has been to short for human interference to have a credible effect on the climate. The problem with that graph is that the graph is compressed to a small size which makes the changes seem like they happened much more quickly than they actually did. The xkcd graph makes the problem with climate change more apparent by allowing you to contrast the sudden jump in temperature with the previous gradual changes. --- http://i.imgur.com/Zkq2JUS.png http://i.imgur.com/AS9KUto.jpg <cite>DarkDragon400 posted [p:885949207] in I dont get...
