Please look at the following two 'versions' of Earth.
One is our past and ...future.

A Brief History of Ice Ages and Warming


"Except for two relatively brief interglacial episodes, one peaking
about 125,000 years ago (Eemian Interglacial), and the other
beginning about 18,000 years ago (Present Interglacial), the
Earth has been under siege of ice for the last 160,000 years."


The reigning climate pattern is where the Earth spends
roughly 100,000 years in a deep ice age, followed by
a brief period of some 15 or 20 thousand warmer years
where life explodes.


The last ice age ended some.....18,000 years ago....btw.


As far as I know, there's no good explanation for this
ice age cycle. Which would imply....strongly imply..
the cause is some as yet unknown astronomical change.


So when this occurs some century soon, humanity needs
to be ready, and have the ability to quickly and effectively
respond...one way of the other. *Regardless if the future
is too warm, or too cold.


This leads me to what might seem like a contradiction.
I don't believe the current climate change is such a
menace to our future, all things considered. But I do
agree that the world should collectively begin
gaining the ability to manage the biosphere.


Which requires the nations of the world to be able
to manage..themselves..first. The answer to
climate change is...social change.
World-wide freedom and democracy!


Climate change will cause the extinction of
the ...dictatorships of the world.


And to our great benefit!


Imho!
