Media Confirms the Earth Is Not Abnormally Warm, Rather It Is in Its Coldest Period in 485 Million Years
19 hours ago Anthony Watts

Recently, many media outlets touted a new scientific study “A 485-million-year history of Earth’s surface temperature” as proof that the current modest rise in temperature over the last 150 years is going to be catastrophic. The data and the methodology used strongly suggest that such claims are false.

For example, in their coverage, The Washington Post (WaPo) quoted one of the study authors, saying:

At no point in the nearly half-billion years that Judd and her colleagues analyzed did the Earth change as fast as it is changing now, she added:

“In the same way as a massive asteroid hitting the Earth, what we’re doing now is unprecedented.”

How absurd. In no way is a world ending event from space anything at all like the gentle warming we’ve seen over the past century.

Considering the Chicxulub impact was powerful enough to ignite forests 1500 miles away (that's 650 degrees F, folks), I think I'd prefer the gentle caress of the global warming of the past century.

In times like these, Darwin's Natural Selection will works its magic.  Those that build reservoirs and desalinization plants will survive; the people that build windmills and solarpanels will go thirsty.
