Oh, 400,000 years? Yawn. My peer-reviewed published research addresses an 18 million year period. I’m not pulling your leg.
During this 18 million year period:
1) temperature increased by 15 degrees Celsius (59F),
2) precipitation decreased,
3) plant life decreased, and
4) carbon dioxide in soil increased.
The best part? It was a very long time ago; about 250 million years before man.
Don't get so wound up by the climate change stuff you see in magazines and videos. You’d stronger cite stronger references if you were truly in this field. Don't overlook the NASA graph you enthusiastically crow about doesn't show a big spike in temperature for modern times. The spike is for CO2 concentration. While CO2 may be increasing, temperature is not increasing in any meaningful way. What 1 to 3 degrees Celsius, depending on the source? Some credible research even suggests its holding steady or even decreasing. While harping on CO2, do not overlook the huge benefit associated with increases in this compound. Ask any botanist; plants love increased CO2. And plants make more O2 for you!
