I assure you I'm not trying to strawman you. These conversations somehow always get so emotional so quickly, so I'm trying to be as forthright as possible. What I am reading from this post is that you're suggesting that since previous changes in temperature took place over extended periods of time, nature had time to evolve thus helping to minimize effects. That seems like a reasonable hypothesis. How long of a time do you think would be the minimum to allow for the presumably substantial evolutionary changes that would be required for adaptation? How does this contrast against the warming, potentially upwards of 10 degrees celsius, that occurred some 330k years ago - to say nothing of the sharp increases in CO2 that also followed? In particular, how rapidly do you suppose that warming occurred?
