Arctic Sea Ice Extent Higher During 1954-2001
Than Almost Any Period In The Last 9,000 Years
During the Roman Warm Period ~2,000 years ago, sea levels were significantly higher than they are now. Modern coastlines are 2 miles down from where they were during the Roman invasion of Britain in 43 AD, strongly implying that surface air temperatures were much warmer ~2,000 years ago compared to today.
