Simple - knights! They were white Europeans, encased in heavy metal, on huge horses - the original SUVs! And they had a diet high in evil red meat, so they offended Gaea, and farted a lot, and methane is a strong global warming gas, and, um . . . Wait, the Medieval Warm Period has been canceled, just like the Little Ice Age. Until man began burning coal in the 1800s there was no climate. And if there was, it never varied. That stuff never happened, people just thought they were warmer or colder because they weren't enlightened back then. I have a computer model somewhere that proves it . . .
Man.. I don't know how many times it has to be explained to you. Climate changes naturally. Yes. We all know that. That does not mean that the atmospheric chemistry change we have caused can't cause a much higher rate of change than normal.
The temperature of your house changes every day, for natural reasons. But when your house catches fire you don't say "warming is natural, it's not burning down".
Is such basic logic skill really that hard to come by? Must be a product of our mushy feelings based education system.
