Record breaking DNA shows Mastodons roaming a hot North Greenland 2 million years ago
By Jo Nova

Greenland, ancient DNA, mastodon. Map.
Kap København is almost the closest point there is to the North Pole on dry land.

The survival of some DNA for two million years is astounding all of itself — breaking the record for oldest known DNA by nearly a million years. Before this, the oldest DNA was thought to be 1.2 million years — beyond which all the global DNA of all the species that ever lived was assumed to be dissolved into unreadable mush.

But now we have found enough of the ancient code to identify a whole ecosystem on the northern edge of Greenland that no one expected to find.  Apparently giant elephant-like Mastodons were wandering the far northern parts of Greenland — practically as close as they could get to the North pole without swimming.

At the time, the world was not just 1.5 catastrophic degrees warmer than today, but a full nuclear 10 to 17 degrees hotter.

Strangely life on Earth wasn’t suffering the sixth mass extinction.

Everything alive on Earth is descended from survivors of mass extinction events.

Thank you for posting this.

This is one problem I have had with the Climate Alarmists all along. Who are they to say what is the 'right' temperature for the planet?
Change naturally occurs, and the warmer (than now) periods seem to be when people and other critters do best, the colder ones tend to kill things and people off.

(...which, ultimately, may be their aim)

AND,as one of the most famous tv advertising line goes,"It's not nice to fool with Mother Nature".

Global Climate Change is scientific hubris based upon the belief that Man is the ultimate power or force in the universe.

What if Global Climate Change is really God adjusting the thermostat?
