“Proxy climate data from a variety of sources, including ice cores drilled in Greenland and Antarctica, show that global temperatures were warmer for most of the past 100,000 years than they are today.”

Scientists who want to believe that global warming is a giant problem use only data from the last thousand years as their base line so that they can show warming in the last hundred years from the abnormal lows of the Little Ice Age from 1300 to 1900.

“Warmer temperatures have in the real world always been better for human civilization than colder ones.”
