Greetings. A few days ago, there was a paper out in science by Emily Judd, a paleobiologist and her colleagues,

looking at a 485 million year history of Earth's temperature records and corresponding CO2.

This has been quickly jumped on by people who are kind of narrow boundary analysts, not well versed in climate change

science and Earth system science, pointing out that we are near, or just coming off the lows

of Earth's lowest temperature ever and lowest CO2.

And this means that one or two or three degrees Celsius doesn't matter because it's been much

warmer and much higher CO2 in the past.

I just had a podcast with Stefan Romsdorf.

It was interesting to me to see how many comments in the YouTube section were by people

calling climate change a hoax and that it just exists to fund scientists and scams and

government take over of our lives.

What if climate change is a hoax? What if all the things that we're

talking about in climate are not true? I'm going to briefly give an overview of what that would

imply in this, frankly. But first on the paper, Judd and her colleagues pointed out several

things that are not really being talked about and are being overlooked by these sensationalist

graphs floating around Twitter by Jordan Peterson and the like. At no point in the nearly half

billion years that Judd and her colleague analyzed did did the Earth change as fast it is now.

Another overlooked point is the Sun is bigger and brighter than when Earth formed by almost 50%.

So we require lower CO2 to offset that increased salation.

Third is this environment with lower CO2 and lower temps has allowed for an explosion of biodiversity.

The biodiversity now, even in this somewhat diminished state the last century or so, is the highest

ever recorded in the history of Earth. Another point is some of the big and many of the mini mass extinctions of the past were due to CO2 and lava basalt's volcanic provinces.
