The Fears of Global Climate Disruption

to get a sense of one of the more extreme worries some scientists have about man made global warming. Is to think about the difference between say New York's Central Park here and Steven Spielberg Jurassic Park. In which science fiction gave us a glimpse of what earth was like back in the Jurassic age a 175. Million years ago. During one of Earth's greenhouse period. Let me explain with the help of a few shirt cardboard then my felt -- here. -- climatologists. Who study the climate of the Earth's deep past tell us that earth formed about four and a half billion years ago. Has alternated between these -- greenhouse periods. When there's little or no snow or ice on the planet. Here's the Jurassic age over here was -- dinosaurs and these much colder ice house periods and if you zoom in -- this current ice house period. You can see that it's been composed. Of a number of ice ages -- warm periods in between in fact here is the beginning of civilization. Just when the last ice age warmed up for a bit about 101000 years ago. Humans on the got started a few ice ages ago over here. The -

There are still a tiny number of scientists who agree with -- that humanity doesn't necessarily need to do anything about a warming climate most scientists however strongly disagree. Here's why. Look at this graph of global temperature they say civilization started here about 7000 years ago just after the last ice age but he global temperature leveled off. Agriculture has always depended on the stable climate . But temperatures are now on track to shoot way above what civilization has ever known even the president distanced himself from Griffin
