Look at the graph here, http://www.daviesand.com/Choices/Precautionary_Planning/New_Data/ How do you explain the climate change from several hundred thousand years ago? I am really not trying to be a prick, I am trying to understand. Over the last few hundred thousand years the climate has changed a lot and drastically, why is it that we think the current climate change is anthropogenic, but not at other times?
