Yup ^

I kinda skimmed the article because have heard a bunch about this and other global warming, omg we have to do something about right now propaganda articles and other media nonsense that is designed to sell, and is not basedoin any facts or history.

The ocean's hold at least 50x more co2 that our atmosphere. The warmer the ocean gets the more co2 it releases. The oceans, because of there mass and depth, lag behind our atmosphere by around 800 years in terms of temps. 800 years ago was the end of the Medieval Warm period. A time with higher co2 and much higher temps than today's, when people thrived. So yes, co2 was going to rise weather we burned fossil fuels or not. People's contribution to global co2 is a spec in terms of whats out there. Co2 has been double what it is today at many times in the planets history and it survived. Interglacials, like the one we're enjoying now last around 11,500 years and guess what? Our current interglacial started around 11,500 years ago. But please, let's continue to talk about global warming and say things like it's the warmest year ever, which is not even remotely true, and keep turning it into a point of contention that divides us politically. Let's not make it about things we can actually improve like pollution and over fishing.
